According to the Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, the Buccaneers are bringing in former Atlanta Falcons center Joe Hawley for a visit. Earlier this week, the Falcons released Hawley, who was set to make $3.5 million this year, after he failed to retain the starting job.
In his career, Hawley has started in 23 games. He was even expected to be the Falcons’ starting center last season, but a torn ACL hampered him for most of the 2014 campaign. The setback extended into training camp this year, forcing Atlanta to look for options elsewhere.
