Tampa Bay cut Pinion on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Pinion's release may not come as a surprise after Tampa Bay selected punter Jake Camarda in the fourth round of the draft in April. The 28-year-old averaged a career-low 42.5 yards per attempt last season, but he played through a torn hip labrum and impingement, which could have contributed to his poor results. However, he recently passed a physical and should be ready for next season as he aims to find work with another squad.
