While rookie safety Shilo Sanders was cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, he reportedly could be back in the building soon.

That said, if he clears waivers, the Buccaneers could, theoretically, still sign Sanders to their practice squad. Be it in Tampa Bay or otherwise, that would be the likely next course of action for Sanders, regardless. Put another way: Sanders has a long way to go before he can even think about making noise for an NFL team.

Shilo Sanders was waived by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, less than 24 hours after he was ejected from a game for throwing a punch, a person with knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press.
