According to Adam Caplan, the Buccaneers worked out three tight ends on Tuesday including Mitchell Henry, Casey Pierce, and Eric Wallace.
Wallace, 27, signed on with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent back in July. He actually played basketball in college for Ohio State and DePaul before changing sports when he was approached about playing Australian Rules Football.
Wallace spent three years in Australia before returning to North Carolina in November of last year. It was at that point he decided to shift his focus to playing football full time. The Saints actually invited him to participate in their rookie minicamp but didn’t receive an offer from the team.
