TAMPA, Fla. – Antonio Brown’s name has been removed from the list of suspended players and he will participate in his first practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Wednesday.

The Buccaneers struck a deal with the receiver last week and he is expected to make his debut on Sunday, when they face the New Orleans Saints.

Brown was suspended for the first eight games of the season for repeatedly breaking the NFL code of conduct.

Coach Bruce Arians said on Tuesday he was not sure how many games Brown would be in on Sunday, but added he would definitely be part of the game plan.

To make room for Brown in their roster, the Buccaneers freed wide receiver Cyril Grayson.

Brown was limited to one game last season with the New England Patriots. He previously played nine seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was invited to the Pro Bowl seven times, including six in a row from 2013 to 2018.
