The Buccaneers have signed 27-year old placekicker Mike Nugent to a 1-year deal.  Nugent missed his only field goal attempt last season for the Jets as he was injured most of the season.  Nugent has played in 49 games in his NFL career and he has made 75 of 92 field goals (81.5%) and 83 of 85 extra points.  Nugent does have a stronger leg than 33-year old incumbent Matt Bryant, but, Bryant has done a good job for the Bucs since coming to Tampa.  Bryant played in all 16 games last season for the Bucs and he made 32 of 38 (84.2%) field goal attempts and he also made 35 of 36 extra points.  With that performance, Bryant tallied 131 points for the Bucs last season.  It will be interesting to watch the battle for the starting job in training camp for the Bucs.
