Bucs pilfer Mike Mickens from Cowboys practice squad

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the last winless team in the league, have made a roster move that likely won’t do much to change the “0" into a “1".

The team has announced that cornerback Mike Mickens has been signed from the Cowboys’ practice squad.

Mickens, a seventh-round pick in the 2009 draft, was cut by the Cowboys on September 5. After clearing waivers, he joined the practice squad.

To make room for Mickens, the Bucs cut cornerback Marcus McCauley, a 2007 third-round pick of the Vikings who has bounced around after being cut before the season started.
