Buccaneers Release Four Players, Trim Roster After Draft

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released four players—wide receivers Marquez Callaway and Tanner Knue, outside linebacker Daniel Grzesiak, and cornerback Dallis Flowers—to make room for new draft picks and undrafted free agents following the NFL Draft. Callaway and Flowers joined the team mid-season last year and saw limited action, while Knue and Grzesiak spent most of their rookie seasons on the practice squad. The roster moves were prompted by a crowded receiver room, especially after Tampa Bay drafted Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson and added several undrafted receivers. With these changes, competition for the final wide receiver spots on the 53-man roster is expected to intensify during the offseason. The Bucs' approach reflects a broader strategy to refresh the team with new talent and prepare for the upcoming season. These roster cuts signal the beginning of a more extensive evaluation process as the team shapes its final lineup.
