    Earlier today, PewterReport.com reported that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were willing to trade cornerback Aqib Talib. Following today's workouts, head coach Greg Schiano denied that report. "Only because there's some extenuating circumstance, I'm going to comment," Schiano said via Stephen Holder of the The Tampa Times. "Usually I won't. In this day and age, with all the blogs and everything, if I commented on every speculation, it would be an everyday task. "All I can tell you is that there is absolutely zero thinking on our part as far as wanting to do that. I want him to be a Buc. I understand there's been issues before I arrived. I'm not naive to that. And I understand that some of those are a heck of a lot bigger than playing football. But I am really hopeful that that clears itself up. Since I met him for the first time, he's done everything I've asked. He's practiced well and he's prepared well. I try not to judge people other than (by) how they treat me, and he's treated me well. "I don't know how all that got started, but no, there's no truth to that."

    Yeah he can travel but only with the team. And he can't leave the hotel what so ever.
