Josh Huff is getting another chance in the NFL.
Huff, the Eagles receiver who was cut last week after he was arrested on charges of DUI, carrying a gun without a permit and possession of marijuana, has signed with the Buccaneers’ practice squad.
A 2014 third-round pick of the Eagles, Huff had played for former Philadelphia coach Chip Kelly at Oregon and was a favorite of Kelly’s. But he already didn’t look like he was going to be much of a factor this season in the Eagles’ offense even before he got arrested. The arrest (as well as subsequent comments that showed a lack of contrition) sealed his fate in Philadelphia.
In Tampa, Huff will get a second chance. And possibly his last chance.
