The Buccaneers needed some defensive line depth coming down the stretch, so they shuffled the roster.

The team announced they signed journeyman defensive end Lawrence Sidbury, waiving cornerback Crezdon Butler to make room for him on the roster.

Sidbury, a former fourth-round pick of the Falcons, has spent time with the Colts and Texans.

The Bucs have promoted a raft of guys from the practice squad lately, but adding a vet like Sidbury helps them get through the next few games.
