@TBBuccaneers
GM Mark Dominik has informed the media that the Bucs have cut ties w/safety Tanard Jackson. Jackson has been terminated/failed physical.

UGH

Damn!!!  Schiano isn't f****** around!!

[Bucsfan x]

Sucks, such a waste of talent.

[-ts]

Damn, Safety just became a very large need.

Ronde to FS is looking highly probable.

[youngone]

some ppl can't get out their own way.

[JM2]

Wow, still so many damn holes to fill after 3 years rebuilding...

[bashear]

Wonder what exactly is the story behind this.

Gonna be some roster turnover from last year.

[LABuc]

Now we absolutely have get a DB in the first 2 rounds.

@NFLSTROUD
Dominik said the Bucs weren't happy with Jackson's growth on and off the field.

@NFLSTROUD
Dominik assured the Bucs are not aware of a failed drug test or impending sanctions pending from the NFL.

I'm more excited for the low tolerance by the team than worried about the hole at safety.

Bucs released FS Tanard Jackson with a failed physical designation.

The Tampa Bay Times' Stephen Holder reports Jackson recently underwent shoulder surgery, but will be ready to return by June. The move likely has as much to do with Jackson's off-the-field history as his injury, as he was suspended for all of 2010 and the first five weeks of 2011 for multiple violations of the league's substance abuse policy. Jackson played poorly upon his return in Week 6 last season, struggling in coverage while getting hammered against the run. Still only 26, however, he will latch on elsewhere.

After watching the Bucs last year, I like this attitude as well.

How would the guy fail a physical?

I'm completely okay with this move.  But I think Schiano was lying about that "everybody gets a clean slate" comment!!  Lol

He just had shoulder surgery.
