Breaking down the Buccaneers’ initial 53-man roster

Related Topics: Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers cut down to a 53-man roster yesterday. We can start breaking that down now, though it’s good to note that a few things will change about this roster in the next couple of hours.

For one, the Bucs are signing safety T.J. Ward today, which will necessitate cutting someone, somewhere. They’re also reportedly activating defensive end Jacquies Smith off PUP, which will necessitate another move. And, thirdly, they’ll need to sign a longsnapper—likely to be Garrison Sanborn, who they waived yesterday to create some extra temporary room on the roster.
