Bucs Add A.J. Francis to DT Corps

Though the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 90-man training camp roster is relatively set, it continues to get minor tweaks as the team works through its offseason program. On Tuesday, the Buccaneers swapped out one spot on their defensive tackle depth chart, signing third-year veteran A.J. Francis and waiving second-year man Davon Coleman.

Francis joins his fourth team after beginning his career in Miami and later seeing time in Seattle and New England. He'll have a good opportunity to compete for a reserve role in Tampa, as the Buccaneers have little experienced depth behind the front-line trio of Gerald McCoy, Clinton McDonald and Akeem Spence.
