Once the lockout is lifted, and NFL teams are able to release and trade players, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are expected to part ways with troubled cornerback Aqib Talib, Rick Stroud of the St. Petersburg Times. Since being chosen with the 20th overall pick of the 2008 NFL Draft, Talib has 127 tackles, 15 interceptions, and 35 passes defensed in 41 career games, but has assaulted teammates and local cab drivers, the latter earning a one-game suspension from the NFL to start the 2010 season. Last month, Talib picked up a aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge in Garland, Texas after allegedly pistol-whipping then shooting at his sister's boyfriend. Though the NFLPA may disagree, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell believes that players will be subject to discipline under the personal conduct policy during the lockout. Talib's track record and latest arrest could result in a multi-game suspension in 2011. Source: Mac's Football Blog
No doubt he needs to go. First he cracks Cox's face open with his helmet, then punches a cab drive and now firing a gun at someone? GTFO.
