Trotter update

For a guy who has played in just one game, Jeremiah Trotter's name comes up a lot around here. People often want to know what's going on with him.

So, I figured I'd find out. If you're interested, check out the story in today's paper on Trotter by clicking here.

You have to admire how he's handled this humbling situation. But the reality is that Trotter might be done after this season. I get the feeling there weren't many teams lining up for his services when he was released from Philadelphia. Otherwise, why in the world would he come to Tampa, where the system doesn't suit him and he has little chance to get on the field?

Great guy, great leader and a great player, but I suspect the end is near for him.

I would like to see him being groomed for a coaching role, even though Joe Barry is one of the best in the league. It's a shame to see him sitting on the shelf like that because I believe he still could be a pro-bowl player. I'm hoping that the Bucs pick him up for another year, but realistically, I expect him to move on after the season ends, even though we don't have much depth behind Ruud. Overall, a great free agent acquisition that didn't break the bank, and brought veteran leadership to a young team. I wish the best for him.

You do realize that Joe Barry is no longer our LB's coach right?
