  • Bruce Anderson: Waived from IR

    The Colts waived Anderson (undisclosed) from injured reserve Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Anderson and the Colts agreed to an injury settlement, so the running back will be able to sign another contract once he's healthy. The North Dakota State product went undrafted in 2019 and has yet to make his NFL debut.

    Anderson signed a reserve/future contract with the Colts on Monday.

    The 22-year-old spent time on the Colts' practice squad during the season but was let go with an injury settlement in November, though it doesn't appear to have been a long-term injury. Anderson will have a tough time cracking the running back group for next season with Marlon Mack, Nyheim Hines and Jordan Wilkins (knee) all under contract.

  • Bruce Anderson: Dealing with injury

    The Colts placed Anderson (undisclosed) on the practice squad injured list on Tuesday.

    The undrafted rookie is on his second practice squad of the year, as he also spent time with Tampa Bay. It's unclear what's bothering Anderson. The team signed Darius Jackson to the practice squad to fill the void.

  • Bruce Anderson: Signs with practice squad

  • Bruce Anderson: Jettisoned from practice squad

    Anderson was released from the Buccaneers' practice squad Tuesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    The undrafted rookie's stay on the Buccaneers' taxi squad was brief, as he'd just signed on Sunday. Despite Tuesday's development - which was prompted by the team re-signing Patrick O'Connor -- it wouldn't be surprising to see Anderson return at some point, considering the team was apparently interested in getting a longer look at him.

  • Bruce Anderson: Nabs practice squad spot

    Anderson was added to the Buccaneers' practice squad Sunday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    The undrafted rookie had limited opportunities in preseason game action until the final exhibition, when he compiled 70 rushing yards and a touchdown along with seven additional yards on a pair of receptions. The Buccaneers ultimately went with only three running backs on their final 53, so Anderson could potentially have a quick path to the active roster if injuries strike the position.

  • Buccaneers' Bruce Anderson: Workhorse back in preseason finale

    Anderson rushed 20 times for 70 yards and a touchdown and secured his only target for seven yards in the Buccaneers' 17-15 preseason win over the Cowboys on Thursday.

    As expected, Anderson got an extended look in the preseason finale, comfortably pacing the Buccaneers in carries. The undrafted rookie's final line was serviceable, but it's worth noting 20 of his yards came on one carry. At the same time, Anderson also played behind a porous and inexperienced offensive line, but nevertheless, he doesn't seem to have any realistic shot at a spot on the 53-man roster come cutdown time. Instead, Anderson looks like a practice squad candidate as the Buccaneers likely head into the season with either Dare Ogunbowale or Andre Ellington behind top duo Peyton Barber and Ronald Jones.

  • Buccaneers' Bruce Anderson: Slight boost in workload

    Anderson rushed three times for three yards and brought in one of two targets for six yards in the Buccaneers' 16-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday.

    Anderson logged modest snaps for the second time in as many preseason games, but his four touches actually represented an exponential increase from what he saw in the exhibition opener. The undrafted rookie had only seen one target directed his way against the Steelers last week, so Friday's workload at least gave him an opportunity to show what he could do on the ground. That ultimately didn't result in any appreciable production, but Anderson's biggest opportunity to make a case for a roster spot or a practice-squad designation may come in the Buccaneers' final preseason contest a week from this coming Thursday.

  • Buccaneers' Bruce Anderson: Minimal action in preseason loss

    Anderson did not log any carries and failed to bring in his only target during the Buccaneers' 30-28 preseason loss to the Steelers on Friday.

    Anderson saw two of his primary competitors for a roster spot, Andre Ellington and Dare Ogunbowale, log a total of 14 touches in the running game while he was shut out altogether. The undrafted rookie is thought to be in an uphill battle to stick on the final 53, but he'll likely get much more of an opportunity to show what he can do in coming exhibitions.

  • Buccaneers' Bruce Anderson: Returns to practice

    Anderson (Achilles) returned to practice Wednesday, increasing his chances of playing in the Buccaneers' preseason opener versus the Steelers on Friday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    Coach Bruce Arians confirmed that Anderson had been dealing with some Achilles tendinitis, but the undrafted rookie is apparently over the issue at this point. A prompt return to practice was particularly important for Anderson, who already faces a relatively steep path to earning a roster spot. He currently slots in fourth on the depth chart at running back alongside Dare Ogunbowale.
