Stephen White always has some hilarious stories from when he was a defensive end with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The latest story was told on the weekly SB Nation Onside Kick Family Hour podcastwith Danny Kelly and Ryan Van Bibber.
Apparently when White was a rookie, the Bucs needed a roster spot for a single game. They decided to waive White, hoping that he'd still be there at the end of the week so they could re-sign him then. The St. Louis Rams wanted to pick him up, though, and the Bucs got wind of it.
