Buccaneers trim roster to 80 players

Once again, following a Saturday night loss in preseason, the Buccaneers have made cuts to their roster, The Bucs trimmed five players to reach the 80 required by Tuesday. Per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, those players are running back Troymaine Pope, cornerback Nate Brooks, linebacker Quinton Bell, wide receiver T.J. Simmons, and safety Lawrence White IV;

Following a rather uninspired performance Saturday night, it’s hard to say that any of these are a surprise - although, Bell was a player that flashed against the Titans and I believe had a decent shot at making the team.
