"One day of practice apparently was enough for Kellen Winslow.
Tampa Bay's new tight end declined to work out with his teammates on the second day of a voluntary minicamp, although Winslow was at the team facility on Wednesday.
"This is a voluntary deal,'' Coach Raheem Morris said, "and Kellen did everything he needed to do. This has nothing to do with health. It's a voluntary deal and Kellen didn't go today.''
Winslow was acquired from Cleveland a month ago on the first day of free agency. He led all NFL tight ends with 89 catches in 2006 and posted 1,106 receiving yards in 2007.
Winslow, 25, figures to be a focal point of Tampa Bay's attack this season under new coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski.
Tampa Bay's first minicamp under Morris will conclude Thursday and he refused to comment on the club's potential interest in Jay Cutler, the disgruntled Pro Bowl quarterback of the Broncos who is now officially on the trading block, according to Denver owner Pat Bowlen.
Morris was asked about the scarcity of franchise quarterbacks around the league.
"Just look through history,'' he said. "They come along every once in a while, but you need one to be successful long-term. They don't come along often.''"
