Crockett gone again

Fullback Zack Crockett was released today, one week after being added to the active roster.

The veteran was taken on to add depth because of B.J. Askew's ankle injury and Crockett's release probably means Tampa Bay expects Askew back in the lineup this Sunday. Another issue was Jerramy Stevens' return from the suspended list, which created a need to eliminate someone from the active roster to meet the NFL maximum of 53 players. Crockett spent a stint with Tampa Bay earlier in the season and was released after about a month on the roster.

Additionally today, tight end Zac Herold was released from the practice squad.
