Seventh-round draft pick Joey Iosefa was among 10 players waived by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday as they move toward finalizing their 75-man roster.

Iosefa was a running back at the University of Hawaii, but he was moved to fullback with Tampa Bay. Apparently it did not work out to Tampa Bay’s satisfaction as he was the team’s only draft pick to be waived on Sunday.

The other players waived by the Buccaneers were running back Dominique Brown, defensive tackle Quayshawne Buckley, offensive lineman Antoine Everett, long-snapper Brandon Hartson, safety Kimario McFadden, punter Karl Schmitz, cornerback Al-Hajj Shabazz, defensive end George Uko and defensive end Jamal Young.

The Buccaneers must cut their roster down to 75 players by Tuesday, then cut down to the 53-man roster by Sept. 5.
