Running back Kareem "The Dream" Huggins has signed a contract with the Bucs

Two good guys were rewarded with spots on the Bucs’ practice squad: St. Petersburg native and Lakewood High School graduate wide receiver Patrick Carter, and Raheem the Dream’s hometown guy running back Kareem Huggins.

Additionally, the Bucs also claimed cornerback William Middleton from the Dixie Chicks. He was Atlanta’s fifth round pick this year.

Joe is happy to see this. Huggins seemed on his way to making the team until he suffered a hyperextended knee against Jacksonville. Carter bounced around last year and it warms Joe’s heart to see a local guy like that finally have his hard work and dedication pay off.
