The Tampa Bay Buccaneers attempted to add competition and depth to its wide receiver position Tuesday by signing Darnell Jenkins to their eight-man practice squad.

Jenkins, 26, has spent time with Houston and Cleveland since entering the NFL in 2008 as an undrafted free agent out of Miami, playing mostly as a practice squad member. The Browns released Jenkins on Nov. 10.

In four seasons with the Hurricanes, Jenkins caught 90 passes for 1,274 yards and five touchdowns.

The Buccaneers will announce a practice squad roster move to make room for Jenkins.

Can they demote Clayton to the practice squad? I know some team would pick him up, but that would be funny.

Shouldn't they be looking at the practice squad of teams like NE, Indy, New Orleans, etc... you know, the good teams loaded at WR. Just a thought.

dcrum35 if you sign a player from another team's practice squad you have to sign him to your active roster. Jenkins was a free agent.
