The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed former All-Pro special teams player J.T. Gray to their practice squad, releasing guard Karsen Barnhart to make room. Gray, a safety with nearly a hundred career games, earned multiple All-Pro honors for his special teams play with the New Orleans Saints. After being released by the Saints due to an injury, Gray had brief stints with the Ravens and Broncos before joining the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay hopes Gray can improve their struggling special teams coverage, which has allowed the fourth-most yards on kickoffs and long kickoff returns this season.
