Anybody know if when the Bucs dropped rookie Larry Brackins WR if they signed him to their practice squad or if any other team has signed him to their practice squad?

The BUCS did sign him initially. Whether he is still there or not I do not know.Tom

Couldn't find anything else new on him except this:

Jan 10 2006 12:59PMJim Flynn, of PewterReport.com, reports the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed free agent WR Larry Brackins to a reserve/future contractFrom KFFL:Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Larry Brackins signed a future two-year contract with base salaries of $235,000 (2006) and $310,000 (2007).

These players are signed to “reserve/future” contracts. In effect, that means they are being signed for the 2006 season even though that season does not officially begin until March. Only players who were not on any NFL team’s active roster when the 2005 season ended are eligible for such signings; if they were under contract, then they would remain so until March. Players who were on practice squads at the end of the season are eligible to sign with any team.

I was about to ask about him, if he looks to make the active roster next year.

When Galloway slows down, Brackens should be ready to step up. Definetly a guy to watch in deep leagues. I know a couple are drafting soon, he's a very good deep sleeper.

I felt like Gruden said one thing and did another with his praise yet not play attitude toward Brackins

I drafted him late round last year. Put him on my dynasty taxi squad. Will probably leave him there one more year but I think given a chance to get some experience - he's pretty raw yet I think - he should be a good wide receiver.
