The Facts:
For the moment at least, Glennon has been relegated to the role of backup QB for the Buccaneers. But that doesn’t mean Glennon has given up on the possibility of reclaiming the job he held for 13 games as a rookie last season. “I’m just going to go out there and compete every day and help the team win in whatever way possible,’’ Glennon said Tuesday. “Josh has been great so far to me and it’s going to be a great opportunity to work with him every day with a guy that has so much experience like that. But, at the same time just by my nature I’m going to go out there and compete. Whatever my role may be I’m going to do it to the best of my ability and help this team win.’’

Upon
signing veteran free agent Josh McCown in March, HC Lovie Smith said McCown would start off working with the first team. Glennon said Smith called him shortly after the Bucs signed McCown and gave him the news. “He just said, to start out, there’s got to be a person to start that goes out with the first (team) and that person is going to be Josh,’’ Glennon said. Reading between the lines, ESPN.com's Pat Yasinskas believes Glennon has a very strong competitive streak. Meanwhile, Glennon’s taking the right approach and really the only one that makes sense. He’s going to continue to work hard. He could have a great preseason and McCown could struggle. Or McCown could get injured. As Yasinskas summed up: "It’s not any different for the quarterback position. McCown starts off with the edge as the veteran, but Glennon isn’t ready to concede anything."
