Eric Rivers Likely to Make Bucs Roster as UDFA Slot Receiver

Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox identifies Eric Rivers as the Buccaneers’ most probable UDFA to make the roster. Rivers, a developmental slot receiver with vertical speed, would slot behind Chris Godwin Jr. and vie for depth against Kameron Johnson and Garrett Greene. His big‑play ability—1,166 yards and 12 touchdowns at FIU, 649 yards at Georgia Tech—paired with a 68.2% catch rate, makes him a useful depth option. Rivers can contribute on special teams, a typical path for WR5/WR6 jobs, and need not carry a full offensive workload to stick. raccoongame.org
