Buccaneers sign safety Goldson
Safety Dashon Goldson, who helped the San Francisco 49ers reach the Super Bowl, signed a five-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Wednesday.
The deal, worth an estimated $40 to $42 million, will average about $8 million per season.
The Tampa Bay Times reported that the Buccaneers sent a private plane to pick up Goldson on Tuesday in California and bring him to Florida to conclude negotiations.
Goldson, who played in the Pro Bowl the last two years, would team at safety for the Bucs with second-year pro Mark Barron.
