Buccaneers Worked Out Four Receivers

According to Howard Balzer, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers brought in four free agents for workouts this week, including WR Chad Hansen.

The full list of tryouts for the Buccaneers includes:

1. WR K.J. Brent
2. WR Chad Hansen
3. WR Bernard Reedy
4. WR Marcus Tucker

Of this group, the Buccaneers signed Reedy to their practice squad.

Hansen, 23, was selected with the No. 141 overall pick by the Jets in last year’s NFL draft. He was entering the second year of his four-year rookie contract worth $2,819,648 when the Jets elected to waive him as they trimmed their roster down to the 53-man limit.

The Patriots claimed him off of waivers shortly after but elected to waive last month. Hansen had a brief stint on the Titans’ practice squad.

Since becoming a free agent, Hansen has worked out for the Rams, Colts, and Bengals, but left each meeting without a contract.

In 2017, Hansen appeared in 15 games for the Jets and recorded nine receptions for 94 yards (10.4 YPC) and no touchdowns.
