The Facts:
The Bucs announced Monday that Griese, left on the outside looking in at what seems to be a three-way battle for the Bucs' starting job, has been released.
Reported by the St. Petersburg Times
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The move comes as no real surprise. ... The team now has rookie Josh Freeman and veterans Luke McCown and Byron Leftwich, along with second-year pro Josh Johnson at the position. The initial belief in Tampa had Leftwich and McCown battling for the starting job, but as noted in
a recent Fantasy Notebook, Freeman's move into the starting mix could be accelerated if he performs well early in camp.
