Bucs Dip into CFL Again for LB Jeff Knox
After signing WR Derel Walker of the Edmonton Eskimos, the Buccaneers will also give an NFL opportunity to former Saskatchewan LB Jeff Knox.
For the second time in the last two weeks, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have looked to the Canadian Football League to add talent to their offseason roster.
On Wednesday, the Buccaneers announced the signing of linebacker Jeff Knox, who played his first two professional seasons with the CFL's Saskatchewan Roughriders. On January 5, the Buccaneers inked wide receiver Derel Walker, formerly of the Edmonton Eskimos. Both were signed to "reserve/future" contracts, which take effect at the start of the NFL's 2017 league season in March.
