Former Falcons center Joe Hawley visits Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are hosting center Joe Hawley for a visit today, according to Rick Stroud. The Atlanta Falcons released Hawley earlier this week after he started 23 games over the past five years for them. Hawley was set to be the Falcons' starting center last year, but missed most of the season with a torn ACL that still limited him in training camp this year.

Hawley played three of his five seasons in the NFL under Dirk Koetter, which probably has a lot do with the team bringing him in now.
