Bucs re-sign Sammy Davis

This is a bad sign if you're wondering about Brian Kelly.

The Bucs re-signed cornerback Sammy Davis, most likely because they don't expect Kelly to recover from a groin strain any time soon. To make room for Davis, the Bucs released cornerback Anthony Madison, who had been claimed off waivers Sept. 2.

Davis was released on the final roster cutdown. With Kelly out, Phillip Buchanon would start in his place and the Bucs will need another cornerback in passing situations - either safety Tarnard Jackson or Davis.

The Bucs also released receiver Chas Gessner, cornerback Carlos and tight end Matt Herian from the injured reserve list.

Since the Bucs released Chas Gessner from IR, does that allow them to resign him to an active roster spot?
I'm thinking this most be a move to replace Boston.
What's the deal?

I just started watching football, can someone explain to me why the QB scratches the centers butt before every play?

Posted by: agatha | September 12, 2007 at 12:58 PM

The QB is not scratching the centers butt agatha, I beleive he is scratching his thigh.
