Not practicing, but improving

Grayson (hamstring) remained a non-participant in Thursday's practice, but he was on the field in a helmet working out off to the side during the portion of the session that was open to the media, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

Grayson was a spectator for the Buccaneers' wild-card win over the Eagles last weekend while he continued to recover from the left hamstring injury he sustained early in Tampa Bay's Week 18 win over Carolina. Though the speedy wideout hasn't taken reps in practice since suffering the injury and looks in line to miss a second straight playoff game Sunday against the Rams, Grayson's presence at Thursday's workout is at least a step in the right direction. According to Laine, Grayson was mostly taking part in stretching and activation work under the supervision of the Bucs' training staff, and he continued to sport heavy bandaging on his injured hamstring.
