The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have their replacement for the recently retired (again) Rob Gronkowski, and Tom Brady has a new veteran tight end.
Kyle Rudolph is signing a one-year deal with the Bucs, per multiple reports.
Rudolph, 32, spent the majority of his productive NFL career with the Minnesota Vikings before leaving last offseason to sign with the New York Giants. His production dipped considerably in the past two seasons (just two combined touchdown catches over that stretch), but he’s still got ideal size and a well-rounded skill set that would fit what the Bucs need at the position.
