The Buccaneers are keeping one of their key defenders in town, having reportedly agreed to re-sign star cornerback Jamel Dean, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter indicates that Dean is in agreement with Tampa Bay on a four-year, $52 million deal, coming out to an average annual value of $13 million per season. Jordan Schultz of TheScore reports that Dean will be collecting $26 million in guaranteed money as part of his four-year deal.
Dean’s contract cannot be signed until Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. ET when the new league year begins.
