Mike James

Buccaneers waive/injure Mike James

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers waived/injured running back Mike James.

What It Means:

James made the initial 53-man roster as the third running back. One of Peyton Barber or Russell Hansbrough will likely be elevated from the practice squad.

Starter Doug Martin is locked in as our sixth-best fantasy back in Week 1, with a projection of 82 rushing yards and 0.66 touchdowns on 18 carries.
