Why NFL teams should take a flyer on Cyril Grayson

Publish date: 2024-09-10

NFL squads looking to add depth to their wide receiver position should look no further. Cyril Grayson is your guy. 

The 28-year-old veteran is now looking for a new home after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers waived him from their roster due to an injury designation. The Bucs also cut Grayson to make room for linebacker Genard Avery.

We've signed LB Genard Avery and waived/injured WR Cyril Grayson.

Appreciate all the love! Love you guys!

The speedster out of Louisiana bounced around multiple NFL teams at the start of his pro career, including stints with the Seahawks, Colts, Texas, Saints, Bears, and Cowboys. 

He got his biggest break with the Buccaneers in 2019, after he was assigned to their practice squad. Through his hard work and perseverance, Cyril Grayson made it to the team’s active roster. 

The agile WR was a revelation for the Bucs in the latter part of the season, logging 212 yards and two touchdowns on 10 receptions. He even made a memorable game-winning touchdown against the New York Jets in Week 17.
