Jennings, a two-time Pro Bowler, signed his contract on Monday and moments later, he met with the Tampa media for the first time as a Buccaneer. For Jennings, who was released by the Bears at the end of August, joining the Bucs meant re-uniting with his former coach, Lovie Smith. Jennings said the comfort level with his former coach helped contribute to his decision to sign with Tampa Bay.
