The Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed quarterback Mike Kafka and wide receiver Tavarres King to the practice squad Wednesday.

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound Kafka spent the past four weeks on Tampa Bay’s active roster before being waived Monday. Kafka, 27, played with the Bucs during the preseason and spent the first three weeks of the season on the team’s practice squad.

The 6-1, 210-pound King originally entered the NFL as a fifth-round pick of the Denver Broncos in the 2013 draft. King spent the first six weeks of the season on the Broncos’ practice squad, before getting promoted to the active roster on Oct. 15, 2013. He was waived on Oct. 19, 2013 and claimed by the Carolina Panthers, spending the remainder of the season on the Panthers’ active roster, where he was inactive for 10 games.

King spent the 2014 offseason and preseason with Carolina and was signed to the team’s practice squad prior to the start of the regular season. After two weeks, the Jacksonville Jaguars signed him to their active roster, where he was inactive for five games before being waived on Oct. 25.
