TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed five unrestricted free agents: kicker Nate Kaeding, defensive linemen George Selvie and Derek Landri, running back Brian Leonard, and wide receiver Steve Smith.

Kaeding has played eight NFL seasons, first with San Diego, then with Miami.

Heading into his seventh season, Smith has been plagued by injuries in recent seasons with St. Louis and Philadelphia after making the Pro Bowl with the Giants in 2009.

Landri also enters his seventh season. He was with the Eagles in 2011 and ’12, and also played for Jacksonville and Carolina.

Selvie spent the 2012 season in Jacksonville, where he had 57 tackles and three sacks.

Leonard was a backup with the Bengals the last four years.
