Bucs release WR Bill Schroeder

Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Tuesday released wide receiver Bill Schroeder and activated offensive guard Matt O'Dwyer from the physically unable to perform list.

Schroeder, a 10-year pro, played in just seven games (two starts) for Tampa Bay this season, recording seven catches for 156 yards and one touchdown. His best game was versus Oakland in Week 3 when he posted four receptions for 126 yards and a score.

However, Schroeder was inactive for each of the last four games and did not catch a pass since a 30-20 loss to the Raiders.

His best season came with the Green Bay Packers in 1999, when the 6-3 wideout registered 74 receptions for a career-high 1,051 yards and five touchdowns. He scored nine TDs in his last season with Green Bay in 2001.

The 33-year-old Wisconsin-La Crosse product has 4,583 yards and 28 TDs on 304 career receptions for Green Bay, Detroit and Tampa Bay.

O'Dwyer, meanwhile, tore a pectoral muscle while lifting weights during training camp and has not played this season. O'Dwyer has practiced with the team for the past three weeks and could see action in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.

There are rumors out there that the Lions are thinking about signing him.
If the Lions sign him, Millen should be given his walking papers instantly. Schroeder was quite possibly the worst reciever ever. He belongs in the Scott Mitchell Hall of Fame.

I agree. Total garbage. He was horrible

They released Grammatica as well, which was surprising, but he has been struggling as of late.

OHNOES!!!!

Scott Mitchell, the name rings a bell, someone fill me in?

Once again, an awful Wr who favre made look like Gold.
