Bucs WR Rakim Jarrett activated from Injured Reserve

The Bucs are getting a wideout back on the 53-man roster before their Week 18 matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be getting back one of their wide receivers to the 53-man roster.

The team announced on Friday that WR Rakim Jarrett is returning from injured reserve to the team’s active roster. Jarrett has not been with the team since he suffered a hamstring injury against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 11.

Jarrett was a special teams player who occasionally fit into the offense before getting injured. The best play of his Bucs tenure so far was in that game against the 49ers, where he caught a 41-yard pass from quarterback Baker Mayfield. Jarrett was listed as questionable on the team’s Week 18 injury report, but head coach Todd Bowles seemed to indicate that the team would be fully healthy against the Carolina Panthers.

Jarrett will re-enter the fold alongside wideout David Moore, who took his place after injury and has caught a touchdown pass since then, coming against the Green Bay Packers earlier in December.
