Cole Beasley Added To The Active Roster

That doesn’t mean Beasley will play Sunday against the Packers. But Joe sure wouldn’t bet against it.

The Bucs could use the spark. And Joe’s fantasy life just improved thinking about Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Julio Jones, Russell Gage and Beasley all being healthy one day at the same time.

Comment closed because it turned into a COVID conversation.
