August 28, 2008 Brian Griese has performed well enough in the preseason to be the Buccaneers' starter and has likely held off Luke McCown for the primary backup job behind Jeff Garcia, according to the St. Petersburg Times. Griese said, "It's a system I feel very comfortable in. There is a lot of responsibility put on the quarterback's lap to get in and out of the right plays, so I take a lot of pride in that. I enjoy that part of it, so it works well for me." Our View:McCown has a superior arm to Griese, but has displayed poor decision-making in the preseason. McCown seems best suited to hold the clipboard as the No. 3 option this season. |

August 16, 2008 Brian Griese will make the start for Tampa Bay when they take on New England during preseason action on Sunday, according to ESPN.com. Our View:Griese is fighting with Luke McCown to be the backup to Jeff Garcia for the Buccaneers. As such, he has no fantasy value. |

August 1, 2008 With Jeff Garcia possibly out of action for a week due to his strained calf, look for the club to turn to Luke McCown to take the majority of snaps and not Brian Griese, according to the Tampa Tribune. Our View:Griese hasn't looked good in the early going and has clearly fallen behind McCown. Still, HC Jon Gruden is always messing with his quarterbacks, so other than Jeff Garcia starting, the backup role is far from clear. |

March 3, 2008 The Buccaneers have acquired Brian Griese from the Bears in exchange for a sixth or seventh-round draft pick, the Chicago Tribune reports. He will likely be the primary backup to Jeff Garcia, although he'll need to fight for that job. |

March 3, 2008 The Chicago Bears are expected to release quarterback Brian Griese today if they are unable to trade him, according to Fan Nation. Griese, who is due a $300,000 roster bonus today, could be headed back to Tampa Bay, as they are the only team who have expressed interest in his services. |

February 28, 2008 The Chicago Bears are shopping quarterback Brian Griese before his $300,000 roster bonus comes due next Tuesday, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. ``Brian is extremely disappointed that he will not have the opportunity to be free to talk with whomever he wants,’’ said his agent Ralph Cindrich. ``There’s not any question whatsoever that would be his preference. But that’s what they’re doing.’’ Sounds like general manager Jerry Angelo is trying to get someone to throw him a second day bone in the NFL draft. That would seem unlikely, given the fact the team will almost certainly release Griese prior to the roster bonus deadline. The organization has already stated that Rex Grossman and Kyle Orton will battle for the starting job, so Griese is the odd man out. |

February 26, 2008 Brian Griese could be cut next week before he is due a $300,000 roster bonus, according to ChicagoSports.com. The organization recently signed re-signed quarterbacks Rex Grossman and Kyle Orton, so it appears the Bears could draft a rookie later in the draft to hold down the third quarterback slot in 2008. |
