Freeman named Bucs' starter
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have their third different starting quarterback of the season.
They named rookie Josh Freeman their starter Wednesday, effective in a Nov. 8 game against the Green Bay Packers.
The Buccaneers currently are on their bye week.
Veteran Byron Leftwich began the season as the Buccaneers' starter before first-year coach Raheem Morris benched him in favor of second-year pro Josh Johnson.
Now Freeman joins the two other quarterbacks drafted in the first round in April, the Detroit Lions' Matthew Stafford and the New York Jets' Mark Sanchez, as starters.

I think you mean Byron Leftwich, not Daunte Culpepper...
