Thu May 7 201515:32The Giants have terminated Ogletree's contract
The Giants have terminated Ogletree's contract, nj.com reports.
Ogletree, who caught just five passes for 50 yards in seven games for the Giants last season, will now look for a depth wideout job elsewhere, while players such as Geremy Davis, Corey Washington, Preston Parker and Marcus Harris look to secure spots on New York's final roster.
Tue Feb 17 201515:44Ogletree re-signed with Giants on Tuesday
Ogletree re-signed with the Giants on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reports.
After signing with the Giants in October, Ogletree caught just five passes for 50 yards in seven games. He'll likely need to compete for a roster spot in 2015, and with Odell Beckham, Victor Cruz and Reuben Randle all under contract, Ogletree is unlikely to make much of an impact.
Tue Oct 14 201419:25Ogletree will sign with Giants
Ogletree will sign with the Giants, ESPN's Josina Anderson reports.
With Victor Cruz done for the year with a torn patellar tendon, the Giants will welcome Ogletree aboard for depth at the wide receiver position. Ogletree made a splash in Week 1 of the 2012 season while with Dallas, catching eight passes for 114 yards and two touchdowns, but he's scored just four times in his other 61 career games and is unlikely to see significant looks in New York behind the likes of Rueben Randle and Odell Beckham.
Sat Sep 20 201419:58The Lions have released Ogletree
The Lions have released Ogletree, the team's official site reports.
Ogletree, who was was inactive for the first two games of the season, was let go by the Lions in order to free up a roster spot for the team's addition of Mohammed Seisay.
Mon Sep 8 201417:52Ogletree inactive for Monday's game against Giants
Ogletree is inactive for Monday's game against the Giants, the Lions' official site reports.
With Ogletree and Ryan Broyles both inactive, the report suggests that fellow receiver Corey Fuller likely has a role in Monday's game plan, though Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate remain entrenched as the team's top wideouts, in any case.

The Lions may use a rotation behind starting wideouts Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate, ESPN's Michael Rothstein reports.
Ogletree and Kris Durham are the leading candidates to work behind the starters, with Jeremy Ross and Ryan Broyles also in the picture. None of the bunch has really stood out this preseason, and there probably won't be many targets left for the third and fourth wide receivers in Detroit's offense.
Sat Aug 9 201422:31Ogletree dropped only target in Saturday's preseason opener agai...
Ogletree dropped his only target in Saturday's preseason opener against the Browns.
While a lone miscue shouldn't harm Ogletree's bid for the No. 3 wideout role, his drop was rather embarrassing, as the ball went through his hands and smacked his facemask, before popping up in the air for a near-interception. While Kris Durham got the start in place of Calvin Johnson, bot Ogletree and Durham played a good number of snaps early in the game.

Ogletree has emerged as the favorite to serve as the Lions' No. 3 wide receiver, according to the Detroit Free Press.
With Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate locked in as the starters, Ogletree will compete for snaps with the likes of Kris Durham and Ryan Broyles, among others. The Lions found a solid Megatron complement in Tate, but still lack depth at the wide receiver position. While the lack of depth is an issue, it certainly helps that the Lions have Brandon Pettigrew and first-round pick Eric Ebron at tight end, not to mention a pair of talented receiving backs in Reggie Bush and Joique Bell. If Johnson and Tate stay healthy, there shouldn't be many targets available for the Lions' other wideouts.
Tue Jul 29 201422:16Ogletree seeing time with first-team offense
Lions WR Kevin Ogletree has "spent time" with the first-team offense during the first two days of training camp.
Ogletree is competing with the likes of Kris Durham, Ryan Broyles, and Jeremy Ross for the third receiver role in Detroit. Though he seems like the front runner now, Ogletree will carry little fantasy value even if he wins the job. The Lions love to utilize their running backs in the passing game, and rookie TE Eric Ebron should see most of his snaps in the slot this season.

Bucs released WR Kevin Ogletree.
Ogletree was third on the team in catches (8), targets (21) and yards (70). Perhaps there's more to this story, but it looks like he was cut after too many drops. The Bucs will promote Chris Owusu from the practice squad to take Ogletree's place.

Wed Aug 28 201320:17Ogletree to open season as No. 3 wideout
Kevin Ogletree is expected to open the season as the Bucs' No. 3 receiver.
Ogletree will see the majority of his playing time as an outside receiver in three-wide sets, with Vincent Jackson moving to the slot. It's a position that has little upside in OC Mike Sullivan's offense. Through three preseason games, Ogletree has 10 receptions for 114 yards (11.4 YPC) and one touchdown. The Bucs lack quality receiver depth, but he'll be pushed for snaps by Tiquan Underwood.

Thu Aug 8 201323:25Ogletree leads Bucs in receiving
Kevin Ogletree led the Bucs with five catches for 65 yards in Thursday night's preseason opener against the Ravens.
Ogletree was first in line for three-wide sets alongside Vincent Jackson and Mike Williams, running ahead of Chris Owusu and Tiquan Underwood. Unfortunately for Ogletree, the third receiver in Tampa's offense holds scant fantasy value.

Thu Jul 11 201311:04Ogletree the favorite to return kicks, punts?
The Tampa Bay Times projects Kevin Ogletree as the Bucs' primary kick and punt returner.
Roscoe Parrish served as the Bucs' return man last season, but he wasn't re-signed. Ogletree has returned just 20 kicks and three punts in his four-year career, so he doesn't have a ton of experience. Tampa Bay did acquire return man Jeff Demps from the Patriots at the draft, but his status is up in the air.

Tue Jun 11 201312:41Kevin Ogletree in lead for No. 3 duties?
The Tampa Tribune says the Bucs are "very high" on WR Kevin Ogletree.
Ogletree appears to have a leg up on the competition for the No. 3 job behind Vincent Jackson and Mike Williams. Tiquan Underwood posted a 28/425/2 line on 55 targets in that role last year. It's not a battle fantasy owners need to watch closely.

Thu Mar 14 201317:12Bucs sign WR Kevin Ogletree
Bucs agreed to terms with WR Kevin Ogletree, formerly of the Cowboys.
Ogletree put up the flukiest game of the 2012 season, catching eight passes for 114 yards and two touchdowns in Week 1. He then went on to catch just 24 passes in 14 games after that. Ogletree, 26 in August, will likely slot in as the No. 3 receiver as the Bucs try and unload Arrelious Benn. He could face competition from Tiquan Underwood for the role.
