The Buccaneers announced the signing of former first-round pick DE Larry English on Thursday, per Scott Smith.
- Tampa Bay also waived/injured rookie DT Jibreel Black to make room for English.
English, 28, has been a major disappointment since the Chargers used the No. 16 overall pick on him back in 2009. San Diego cut English loose back in July and he later worked out for the Cowboys, but didn’t receive an offer.
Last year, English appeared in nine game and recorded 18 tackles, 2.5 sacks, and a pass defensed. Pro Football Focus has English rated as the No. 27 qualifying outside linebacker in 3-4 system out of 42 players.
