The Buccaneers already lost Kwon Alexander to the 49ers earlier this week and the status of Kendell Beckwith and Jack Cichy are still up in air as they recover from injuries.
Tampa Bay did agree to terms with former Cardinals safety and hybrid linebacker Deone Bucannon and also re-signed Kevin Minter on Tuesday.
