Buccaneers Promote Peyton Barber To Active Roster

It’s no surprise that the corresponding move to Mike James’ shocking release was that undrafted rookie running back Peyton Barber was called up from the Buccaneers’ practice squad to round out the 53-man roster Thursday morning. Barber was the best back behind James in preseason and there won’t be a learning curve for him as there would be on such short notice like there would be by signing a free agent.

That being said, I still fully expect the Buccaneers to sign free agent running back Jacquizz Rodgers after their week one game against the Falcons.
