Don't quote me on it, but I think this will be Ellington's 3d season with the Bucs.

Not sure if he had a stint with them last year or not, but he was with the Texans in 2017. They had both Ellingtons on the team for a while.
I didn't understand TB releasing Humphries last year, but the NFL is often beyond my understanding.

They didn't release him. His contract was up and the Titans had more money to spend than the Bucs. The Bucs just had to cut Gerald McCoy, arguably their best player, because of the salary cap.

I think that most knew that he would land straight back up on his feet. For a guy of Jordan's size, he has a remarkable ability to catch a FB even when his body is way out of position!!!

I agree, that I expected him to get picked up some where quickly. However, I am surprised it is with the Bucs. They already have OJ Howard, Cameron Brate at TE, and Mike Evans is a huge WR. Imagine a play with all 4 of them running routes at the same time. Just throw it up for a jump ball. One of them surely would have a mismatch.

As a Tampanean - the Bucs need ALL the Clemson character

they can get - like the Raiders.
Just to offset all that Winston brings to the gutter - I mean table.
Interesting to see how teams MAY be jumping on the character aspect of a Clemson Man.
For sure the Raiders - they said it point blank. The Bucs need it, too - badly.
GO JL - YOU HAVE BEEN AWESOME IN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP town before - DO IT AGAIN ! ! !

I'm not a Patriot fan, but as far as his career goes, or could go, I was hoping the Patriots would get him.

I am a big fan of Jordan Leggett. Let a not forget how clutch he was! The guy was acrobatic.

May just be a step on the road for Leggett. With OJ and recuperating Brate healthy, Leggett is playing to improve for his next stop ... unless someone is traded.
