On Friday, the Bucs waived Byron Storer with an injury settlement, according to ESPN.com’s Pat Yasinskas, but the team did not announce the move.

Storer’s release leaves the team with just two fullbacks – starter B.J. Askew and reserve Jameel Cook. This will likely prompt the Buccaneers to add another fullback prior to training camp to compete with Cook and help the unit practice without Cook and Askew taking so many reps.

Storer, who made the team as an undrafted free agent from California in 2007 after a stint on the practice squad, was mostly a special teams player for Tampa Bay, finishing his Buccaneers career with 16. Last year, he saw some duty as a fullback, starting three games in place of the injured Askew (vs. Green Bay, at Denver and vs. Carolina), but did not record any statistics. During the 2007 season, Storer caught two passes for three yards.

Now buccaneers.com says Storer was put on IR, not waived. Here's the link to that story. http://www.buccaneers.com/news/newsdetail.aspx?newsid=7096 Time will tell if Storer was waived or put on IR but either way he won't be with us.
