Coach Raheem Morris Waffles, Sends Buccaneers QB Byron Leftwich to the Bench
Published: September 28, 2009

In an abrupt about-face, Morris has changed his mind and will start backup Josh Johnson next Sunday against the Redskins.
Leftwich wasn't even demoted to backup; he went all the way to the third, inactive position. Rookie Josh Freeman will move into the backup role against the Redskins.

Morris went on with his usual dogma: "We're in constant evaluation. We don't make knee-jerk decisions."
"I haven't told Josh Freeman yet (that he'll be the backup)."
