Bucs need all the help on the D-line they can get. Would be cool for him to be playing in RayJay again!

He will land on their PS if no one signs him to their 53. Got 4 games where he received some snaps under his belt at least.

Does this mean he gets the NFL minimum for the year, or is in minimum for 4 games plus prorated practice squad dollars?

Interesting question. Hard to say for certain-- as while there is a minimum for practice squad players, there is also no limit on what teams can pay those players (does not count against the salary cap). Some teams pay more to keep a player from jumping to another team. Not saying this is the case with Hector-- just pointing out that league minimums are not always cut and dry.

My guess is that this is a week by week situation where he gets at least the league minimums each week in depending on his status for the week. So it will be prorated via that method.

Also-- he can always be picked up by another club to their active roster even if he is on the practice squad.
