Pewter Report debuted a new season-long weekend feature this month called Fifth Down, that will showcase some of the Bucs’ new players each week as the season goes along. This week’s featured player is running back Peyton Barber.
The Georgia native played his college football at Auburn but left following his redshirt sophomore season to help provide financially for his family. After going undrafted, Barber signed with the Bucs but was released during the team’s final preseason cut downs, then signed to the practice squad. Barber was promoted to the active roster on September 8, and depending on the health of Charles Sims, Barber could get some carries on Monday night against the Carolina Panthers.
