The Bucs have promoted cornerback Troy Hill to the active roster from the practice squad, and they have waived safety Kaevon Merriweather. So another post-bye week shakeup, in addition to claiming Mike Edwards off of waivers.

“On Monday, the Buccaneers signed Troy Hill to their active roster, 19 days after they had added him to their practice squad. To create a spot for Hill on the 53-man roster, the team waived safety Kaevon Merriweather.”
Hill’s NFL journey began as an undrafted free agent with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2015. After being claimed off waivers, he joined the Los Angeles Rams’ practice squad. Hill spent six seasons with the Rams, punctuated by a one-season stint with the Cleveland Browns in 2021 before returning to Los Angeles.
Troy Hill was released by Carolina in October, and boasts 119 games, 60 starts, 9 interceptions, 3 pick-sixes and 41 passes defensed over his 10-year NFL career.
Kaevon Merriweather became expendable with the signing of Mike Edwards.
