Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers re-signed wide receiver
Tiquan Underwood on Thursday and parted ways with wideout Preston Parker.
Underwood, who played for Bucs' first-year coach Greg Schiano at Rutgers, was
with Tampa Bay during training camp before being waived during final cuts on
Aug. 31.
Last year, Underwood appeared in six games for the New England Patriots before
he was infamously cut the night before their Super Bowl XLVI loss to the
New York Giants.
Underwood has 11 career catches for 141 yards over three seasons with the
Jacksonville Jaguars and Patriots.
Parker, who suffered a foot injury during Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Giants,
appeared in all 16 games with the Bucs in 2011 and tallied career highs in
catches (40), yards (554) and touchdowns (three).
The North Alabama product signed with Tampa Bay in 2010 as an undrafted free
agent.
