Buccaneers Announce Final Roster Deadline Moves
The 53-man roster deadline has come and gone, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have announced their transactions as such.
The Buccaneers' roster is at the 53-man limit, but the team will be required to make corresponding cuts as four players will have to be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list in the near future.
You can find each of the Buccaneers' waives and releases below.
Waived: T Jake Benzinger, WR Cyril Grayson, S Javon Hagan, OLB Ladarius Hamilton, G Jonathan Hubbard, TE Tanner Hudson, WR Travis Jonsen, CB Herb Miller, TE Codey McElroy, OLB Elijah Ponder, DL Benning Potoa’e, DL Kobe Smith, OL Brandon Walton, CB Chris Wilcox, T Brad Seaton (injured)
Released: TE Jerell Adams, QB Ryan Griffin, CB Antonio Hamilton, LB Joe Jones, DL Jeremiah Ledbetter, WR Jaydon Mickens, RB C.J. Prosise
On reserve/COVID-19 list: OL Earl Watford and Nick Leverett, DL Ndamukong Suh, K Ryan Succop

Teams will have 16 practice squad spots available for the second year in a row after the NFL expanded eligibility amid the COVID-19 pandemic. When some of, if not all of the Buccaneers cuts clear waivers, the team will be able to add eligible players to its practice squad. Up to six players can be signed without accrued seasons limitations.
