Former Gophers receiver Tyler Johnson agrees to deal with Tampa Bay

Former Gophers receiver Tyler Johnson agreed to terms with Tampa Bay on a four-year contract Monday.

Johnson, the Buccaneers’ fifth-round pick, is the first member of Tampa Bay’s 2020 rookie class to reach an agreement with the team.

Rookies had been scheduled to report Tuesday, but over the weekend the Bucs moved the starting date for first-time players to Thursday.

Terms of the deal were not released, but the total value is expected to be about $3 million.

Johnson will enter training camp competing for Tampa Bay’s third receiver spot.
