BUCCANEERS SIGN BARNHART TO PRACTICE SQUAD

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers today signed offensive lineman Karsen Barnhart to the team's practice squad. Additionally, the club placed practice squad tackle Tyler McLellan on the Practice Squad/Injured Reserve list.

Barnhart (6-5, 316) joins the Buccaneers after most recently spending time on the Denver Broncos' practice squad in Week 7. He originally entered the NFL as a college free agent with the Los Angeles Chargers in April of 2024. He spent the entirety of the 2024 season on the Chargers' practice squad before ultimately being waived in August of this year. Barnhart played collegiately at the University of Michigan (2019–23), appearing in 43 career games and making 31 starts. The two-time All-Big Ten selection started all 15 games across three different positions for the 2023 College Football Playoff National Champion Wolverines team. Barnhart played briefly with current Buccaneers starting left guard Ben Bredeson at Michigan in 2019. The Paw Paw, Michigan, native will wear No. 61 for Tampa Bay.
