The Buccaneers announced the signing of linebacker Shaquil Barrett.
Initial reports Friday night indicated Barrett was signing with the team’s practice squad, but he signed to the 53-player roster. He has not played this season after deciding to retire over the summer, but the Dolphins waived him from the reserve/retired list this week.
The Bucs also announced they signed punter Jack Browning to the active roster.
Wide receiver Kameron Johnson and safety Jordan Whitehead were activated back to the active roster from injured reserve. Whitehead landed on injured reserve Nov. 29 after injuring a pectoral muscle in Week 12 against the Giants. Johnson played four early season games before going on injured reserve Oct. 21 with an ankle injury he aggravated in Week 5 against the Falcons.
The Buccaneers waived linebacker Vi Jones.
Additionally, the Bucs elevated linebacker Deion Jones and quarterback Michael Pratt from the practice squad for Sunday’s game. It marks the first elevation of the season for Jones and the third for Pratt.
