It's a bad year to be a WR with the initials KJ.

ESPNEWS is saying he's been deactivated.


He'll either be released after the season or traded.

Pasq is on the radio and just confirmed what vtbub said, though no mention of trading him. He basically isn't allowed at practice or games or any team functions and will be released after the season...

Bucs Deactivate Keyshawn
The Tampa Buccaneers have deactivated wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson for the rest of the season, reports ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli. Losers of the three straight games, the defending champions are 4-6 and in danger of missing the playoffs.

I can only hope John Gruden played back the tape of Meshawn insulting Marvin Harrison a few times when he told him of the decision.

OK Bucs, only one more conceited, egotistical bastard to go and I can start liking you again.

he played last week. I beleive he is now back and 100% healthy. They've been toying with signing Andre Rison (yes, that one) all season. I hope they make that a reality, for comedy value alone.

Both the Vikings starting defensive ends were arrested for DUI this week. Keyshawn should have enough character...

Of topic, but one of the links on that page was "Callahan on THG". I think they could have phrased that a bit better.

Here's some more info...

When contacted by SportsLine.com, Johnson sounded shocked and added he didn't know anything about such a move.

"I'm not even in town right now," he said. "I'm traveling. For what? What are they doing that for? What have I done?

"I didn't do anything. I haven't done anything, like I've always done, but play with passion when I step in between those white lines."

Phone calls to Rich McKay have not been returned.

Johnson has privately stated to friends it is his desire to play elsewhere next season. Earlier this season he battled with Gruden over his lack of balls thrown to him in the offense. He also gave Gruden a shot by boasting how far he has to go in order to be on the same level of Bill Parcells.

The two have had a rocky relationship since Gruden first came to Tampa a year ago. There were blowups on the sideline, recent rips by Johnson's agent of the coach and even an embarrassing moment on TV when he was caught belittling fellow Pro Bowl wideout Marvin Harrison.

ESPN says he's just deactivated, Keyshawn says he's released in the quote in the same article. I wonder which side is right:

"Honestly, I'm very disappointed because I really wanted to win another championship with this team," he said. "I was never Gruden's guy. He never liked me. I told him I'd rather retire than play for him in 2004. But I also told him I wouldn't be a distraction, I wouldn't go to the media with it and I didn't. I don't know why they released me. I was playing hard, I wasn't dogging it. Tell everyone I'm in New York looking for apartments."

I'm interested to see how this turns out, if they only deactivate johnson, then they still own him and he plays for no-one this year. if they release him altogether, then whoever is highest on the waiver wire gets first dibs. Something tells me Johnson crossed a line with gruden after the game sunday and Gruden decided that he'd had enough bullshit from a not so great reciever. Keyshawn has always been all talk and no walk. well, now you can walk KJ, walk your ass right out of the erna and sit your stupid shit on the curb for awhile.

did I mention that I seriously dislike KJ? =)

Scott, I'd think Keyshawn's just equating this with being released...either that or the first news he heard of it was the initial, apparently incorrect, "he was released" line.

Still is kind of screwey...

Is there anyone on the planet who would take Keyshawn over Marvin Harrison? And still the guy is dumb enough to mock Harrison on national TV. I bet Harrison is enjoying this breaking story.

Only if Tampa releases him and he will sign for the minimum. The Jets are going to take a hit from releasing Mo Lewis, plus they need to re-up Pennington and Abraham this year. Add in the fact that it is being reported as somewhat of a done deal that they get TO, and there is certainly no money for Me-shawn.

I think TO would be a bad signing for the Jets (speaking as fan of the team).

I'm a huge fan too. The TO 'in the bag thing' is likely wishful thinking. He's a head case, but unlike Moss, he always plays hard, and oh, so well.

Besides, if he can make a chump like Garcia look like an all-pro, he'll put Pennington in the HoF.

If my jerks-go-to-the-jerk-magnet teams theory is right, TO will go to Oakland.

My theory has correctly predicted Galloway going to the Cowboys, Romanowski to the Raiders, and Leaf to the Cowboys in the past.

Of course, I don't know if the Raiders have the cap room for TO. I'm guessing they don't.

How about T.O. and Keyshawn replacing Rice and Brown in Oakland? Whew, that would make for some good hatin'!
