Buccaneers' Patrick Laird: Won't play versus Lions
Patrick Laird (coach's decision) is listed as inactive ahead of Sunday's divisional-round matchup against Detroit.Laird was elevated from the practice squad for the second week in a row Saturday, and it appeared he could have a chance to suit up for the first time this season with No. 2 running back Chase Edmonds considered questionable to play with a toe injury; however, the latter running back was ultimately listed as active Sunday afternoon. As a result, Laird will be ruled a healthy scratch for the second straight contest, leaving Rachaad White, Edmonds and rookie Sean Tucker to once again fill out Tampa Bay's running back room Sunday.

Patrick Laird: Let go by Bucs
The Buccaneers released Patrick Laird on Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.Laird was the fifth running back on Tampa Bay's depth chart, rendering this move relatively unsurprising. While he was unable to secure a role on the 53-man roster, it is still possible for him to get an opportunity on the team's practice squad. If that does not come to fruition, the 28-year-old will look for a fresh start elsewhere. He primarily played a depth running back role in Miami during his first three seasons.

Buccaneers' Patrick Laird: Breaks off impressive run Saturday
Patrick Laird rushed three times for 27 yards and brought in his only target for one yard in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 26-20 preseason win over the Ravens on Saturday night.Laird logged the second-fewest snaps among the Buccaneers' running backs, but he put them to good use with a 21-yard scamper. The fourth-year pro is a versatile asset that can contribute as a runner, receiver and in multiple facets on special teams. Those traits, combined with his experience edge over undrafted rookies Sean Tucker and Ronnie Brown, could be enough to secure him a reserve running back role.
