Buccaneers Sign Guard J.R. Sweezy

Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud broke the news that the Buccaneers have agreed to a deal with former Seahawks’ guard J.R. Sweezy. The deal is for five years, $36-million dollars.

Sweezy reportedly had over a dozen teams interested in his services and the Bucs were able to beat them out. It’s a tall task to replace a seven-time Pro Bowler in Logan Mankins, but Sweezy will have that opportunity. According to Pewter Report, he will compete with current Buccaneer Kevin Pamphile.

New #Bucs G J.R. Sweezy will compete with @KevinPamphile70 for Logan Mankins' former spot at LG.
