Bucs' re-signing of Joe Hawley brings some clarity with offensive line

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have agreed to terms with center Joe Hawley on a two-year deal, bringing back valuable leadership and experience to an offensive line looking to improve off a disappointing season last year.

Here's more on the move:

Terms: Not immediately available, but it's a two-year deal.

Grade: B-. Although Hawley had a knee injury for the majority of the season, he still managed 15 starts and played 928 snaps, which was the fourth-most snaps for the Buccaneers’ entire offense.

What it means: It doesn't necessarily mean Hawley is the starter again for next season.
