The Buccaneers have signed cornerback Crezdon Butler to their active roster on a one-year deal, a league source tells Rand Getlin of Yahoo Sports (on Twitter).
Butler, who spent last year with the Chargers, visited with the Titans last week. Tampa Bay has been extremely active recently and they’ve already cut five players who made their initial 53-man roster just ten short days ago. Butler, 27, saw time in a dozen games for the Bolts in 2013 and recorded three tackles with one forced fumble.
Earlier today, the Bucs re-signed defensive end Larry English and waived defensive end Steven Means to open up a spot for him. Tampa Bay also picked up former Bills defensive end Jacquies Smith. Head coach Lovie Smith demands a lot from his defense and he’s determined to have the best personnel possible to see it through.
