The Buccaneers didn’t announce any of their roster moves on Friday, but the NFL’s daily transaction report confirmed the departure of defensive end Da’Quan Bowers along with nine other cuts that trimmed the team’s roster to 65 players.
Among the ex-Buccaneers is Patrick Omameh, who started all 16 games at right guard for the team in 2014 but lost his spot on the roster with third-round pick Ali Marpet moving into the starting lineup. They also released linebacker Khaseem Greene, who joined the team off of waivers from the Bears during the offseason. Greene started six times for the Bears over the last two seasons and returned an interception 98 yards for a touchdown last Thursday, but the Bucs have opted for other options.
The team also confirmed that Kyle Brindza will be their kicker by releasing Connor Barth and waiving Patrick Murray with an injured designation.
Linebacker Larry Dean, quarterback Seth Lobato, cornerback Brandon Dixon, defensive back Chris Hackett and wide receiver Tavarres King. There’s no mention of it on the transaction report, but multiple reports also have fifth-round wide receiver Kenny Bell headed to injured reserve with a hamstring injury.
