Michael Pratt, we hardly knew thee.

Yesterday the backup quarterback position for the Bucs became a little clearer (?) when the Bucs released with an injury settlement backup quarterback Michael Pratt.

The Tulane product and former Packers draft pick never practiced in this summer’s Bucs training camp due to a bad back.

Joe is of the mind this ends the recent quarterback drama in Bucs camp when the Bucs began the period by signing former starting quarterback Teddy Bridgewater amid murmurs that presumed No. 2 quarterback Kyle Trask was struggling this summer.

Joe can only guess this is good news for Trask. Pratt was signed by the Bucs last August and his claim to fame with the Bucs was being bounced from the 53-man roster to the practice squad and back again several times.

This also suggests that Bridgewater is good to go to be at least the Bucs’ No. 3 quarterback. Bridgewater did not take a snap in the Bucs’ first worthless preseason game on Saturday night.

Bridgewater also took snaps for the first time this summer on Monday in 11-on-11 drills.

As for Pratt, he never threw a football for the Bucs in a real game.
