Buccaneers announced that they waived running back Ke’Shawn Vaughn.

Related Players: Rachaad White, Chase Edmonds, Sean Tucker

The former third-round pick has only accrued 125 rushing attempts over his four seasons with the team, including 24 in 2023. This shouldn't do anything to mix up the current rotation, with Rachaad White far and away the RB1.

Buccaneers running back Chase Edmonds is headed for tests on his injured knee.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Edmonds will have an MRI on Monday after leaving Sunday’s win over the Bears with an injury. There is particular concern about an injury to Edmonds’ MCL.

Edmonds signed with the Bucs in March and he’s seen action on offense and special teams over the first two weeks of the season. He had two carries for eight yards in the opener and two carries for 12 yards against the Bears. White and Tucker are the top two backs for the Bucs but this injury could mean Vaughn gets into the lineup as the RB3 if Edmonds misses time.

While it was assumed a talent of Sean Tucker's caliber could make the roster if healthy, climbing the depth chart to plant himself as the main backup to Rachaad White was impressive. Going from undrafted to RB2 means a lot to the rookie runner.

“I just want to showcase my talents and provide whatever I can to the team,” Tucker said. “I want to help us win going into the season and just making the 53 (man roster) is a dream come true and is somewhere I’ve always wanted to be.”

Tucker's story is a great one. At one time he was primed to be a Day 2 pick in the NFL Draft, but ended up not even getting drafted. He signed with the Bucs after the draft and from there climbed the depth chart and beat out veterans Edmonds and Vaughn. Tucker ran for 81 yards on 23 carries, adding 22 yards on five receptions. He also had a 12-yard touchdown called back against the Steelers. Tucker seems like a smart pickup for those who own White in leagues this season.

Bucs officially released RB Leonard Fournette and TE Cameron Brate.

The latter may be a little more surprising than the former but they are both aging veterans who can have their production replaced rather easily. Cade Otton had a couple of small flashes with Brate sidelined last season, but we'll have to see how that translates into an offense without Tom Brady.

Buccaneers are signing former Broncos’ running back Chase Edmonds to a one-year deal.

Edmonds will more than likely split snaps with Ke'Shawn Vaughn and possibly even another late-round running back in Tampa Bay.

Broncos RB Chase Edmonds is expected to miss multiple weeks with a high ankle sprain suffered in Sunday’s loss to the Raiders.

Directly —and I mean directly— following news of the team's release of Melvin Gordon comes the news that Edmonds will be out for multiple weeks. The Broncos' depth chart is now headlined by 2019 fantasy superstars Marlon Mack and Latavius Murray.

The Broncos make a move following Sunday’s loss, as Denver has waived veteran RB Melvin Gordon. A respected player who spent three years with the Broncos, Gordon’s fumbles proved too much. A fresh start for all parties.

Gordon had already been on thin ice, as evidenced by the team's recent trade for Chase Edmonds. Latavius Murray —who went for 49 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries Sunday— would be the clubhouse favorite to become the new lead back, as Edmonds could operate as the change-of-pace back, depending on the severity of his lower leg injury. Marlon Mack is also currently on the active roster, with Devine Ozigbo on the practice squad.

Melvin Gordon will remains the Broncos' starting running back, per George Paton.

Gordon had a 9-29-1 line and added three catches for 23 yards last week, but Murray had a 14-46-1 line. It would at least make sense Edmonds becomes the team's third down and pass catching back once he's up to speed. Gordon may be the starter but the two have pretty much split the work over the last two weeks: in Week 7, Gordon out-touched Murray 13-10 and last week it was Murray out-touching Gordon 15-12.

According to Adam Schefter, Bradley Chubb and a 2025 fifth-round pick will be moved for a 2023 first-round, 2024 fourth-round selection and running back Chase Edmonds.

Edmonds joins a crowded backfield in Denver where there is already a lot of fantasy confusion. Edmonds could at least claim a pass catching role ahead of Boone, but it remains to be seen if he eats into the workload of Murray and Gordon.

A Florida native, Michel signed with the team in May of this year but was eventually considered a redundant asset in the Dolphins' running back room.

Michel was given nine rush attempts through three preseason games and managed 13 yards combined. All signs point toward this being a split backfield with Raheem Mostert being utilized as a change-of-pace back behind Chase Edmonds, who could end up as the fantasy steal of the summer, particularly for those of whom were drafting him when his ADP was at the end of the 9th Round.
