TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The Buccaneers have agreed to terms on a five-year contract with first-round draft pick Gerald McCoy and reached a six-year deal with restricted free agent left tackle Donald Penn.
General manager Mark Dominik announced the developments Saturday as the club opened training camp. Penn joined the first workout about 15 minutes later, and there's a chance McCoy could be on the field for a late afternoon practice.
McCoy was the third overall pick in this year's draft out of Oklahoma. The 6-foot-4, 295-pound tackle is being counted on to fill a huge hole on the defensive line.
To make room on the roster, tackle James Williams was released.
