There’s still a chance the Bucs won’t end up just releasing Darrelle Revis for nothing. According to Peter Schrager, multiple teams are calling Tampa Bay to inquire about trading for Revis:
Don't assume that Revis will be released just yet. I can report that TB has received inquiries from multiple potential trade partners.

Deep breaths, Bucs fans. Deep breaths. The phones are, indeed, ringing down in Tampa at the moment. Teams want to talk re: Revis.

This isn’t too surprising considering Revis still has a few more productive seasons left in him. The biggest issue will be his salary in a potential trade though.
If I am the Raiders though who have $60+ million in cap space, I’m clogging the phone lines until my deal gets done.
