Buccaneers announce roster moves as they prepare for the NFC Championship game

On Wednesday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers activated linebacker Kevin Minter from the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

The team had previously announced on Tuesday that they have signed linebacker Deone Bucannon from their practice squad to their active roster and placed linebacker Jack Cichy on the Reserve/Injured list. Tampa Bay also designated running back Kenjon Barner for return from the Reserve/Injured list, allowing him to resume practicing with the team. The Buccaneers have a 21-day window to return Barner to the active roster.

Bucannon (6-1, 211) was elevated from Tampa Bay’s practice squad for each of the team’s two playoff games, appearing on special teams.
