EDMONTON – The Edmonton Eskimos granted star slotback Derel Walker his release as he pursues a potential contract in the NFL. First reported by ESPN’s Jenna Laine, Walker has signed a deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs have since confirmed the signing.
Walker was scheduled to become a free agent on February 14th.
In just two seasons Walker established himself as one of the most dominant pass-catchers in the league, posting back-to-bak all-star campaigns with 1,000-yards plus. He was also an integral part of helping the Eskimos capture the 103rd Grey Cup presented by Shaw in his rookie season.
