The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced on 22 December that rookie wide receiver Evan Spencer has been promoted to the active roster ahead of their home match up against the Chicago Bears.
Spencer was a 2015 sixth round draft pick by the Washington Redskins coming out of Ohio State, and was signed to the Buccaneers practice squad after being released by the Redskins following an injury prior to the regular season.
As a Senior for the Buckeyes in 2014, Spencer helped the team secure the first ever College Football Playoff Championship with 15 catches, 149 yards, and 3 touchdowns.
