Bucs wide receiver Michael Clayton (80) seems to be enjoying himself more now that hes catching more passes and is a businessman.

Easy Bucs fans. The Glazer Boys aren’t retiring Michael Clayton’s number.

His old high school in Louisiana is, so reports Stephen Holder of the St. Petersburg Times.

It seems Clayton will be a bit busy during his bye week. He’ll be at the Alabama-LSU game for the coin flip at his alma mater and then he’s opening up his own haberdashery, “80 Stitches.”

Joe’s not so sure the bye week will be good for Clayton in the long run. Finally he seems to be getting out of a slump that has stretched from his second season in the NFL which damned near had him cut from the Bucs roster. Clayton still has a bad habit of dropping key passes, though he seems to be catching more key passes in recent games.

“It’s about confidence,” Clayton said. “I had to go through a lot to earn Coach Gruden’s confidence in me again. I had to go through a lot to earn Jeff (Garcia’s) confidence in me. It’s about taking advantage of the opportunity and playing well. All that plays a part in how you feel out there on the field.

“When you get the feeling, it’s like you’re in a zone. You catch everything, you see more, you get more opportunities. You can really start to make stuff happen when you get the ball in your hands more. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to get that feeling.”

Joe hopes Clayton continues his hot streak. Sadly, for Clayton, the bye week couldn’t have come at a worse time.
