On Monday, one day after claiming running back Kregg Lumpkin off waivers from the Green Bay Packers, the Buccaneers did the same with rookie LeGarrette Blount, who was released by Tennessee on Sunday. To make room for Blount on the 53-man roster, Tampa Bay released wide receiver Reggie Brown. Blount entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the Titans this past spring. A powerful 247-pound runner, Blount led Tennessee in rushing during the preseason, gaining 118 yards and two touchdowns on 31 receptions. In 15 games over the 2008-09 seasons at Oregon, Blount rushed for 1048 yards and 18 touchdowns on 154 carries, averaging 6.8 yards per tote. Source Buccaneers.com
He has a tremendous upside talent wise, but I can't think of a veteran that will control this kid in the locker room.
