According to Albert Breer, the Buccaneers are bringing in three special teams free-agents for visits this week, including veteran P Dustin Colquitt, K Brett Maher, and LS Garrison Sanborn.
This comes after the news that Tampa Bay placed K Ryan Succop, P Bradley Pinion and LS Zach Triner on the COVID-19 list.
Colquitt, 38, is a former third-round pick of the Chiefs back in 2005. He’s played his entire 15-year career in Kansas City and was entering the final year of his three-year, $7.5 million contract when the Chiefs released him back in April.
The Steelers signed him to a deal shortly after training camp but cut him loose in late October.
In 2020, Colquitt has appeared in five games for the Steelers and totaled 861 yards on 20 attempts (43.1 YPP) to go along with six punts downed inside the 20-yard-line.
Maher, 30, originally signed on with the Jets as an undrafted free agent of Nebraska back in 2013. He lasted just a few months in New York before he waived and later signed by the Cowboys during the preseason.
Unfortunately, Dallas cut Maher loose just a few weeks later as they cut their roster down to the 75-man limit. Maher spent three years in the CFL before signing a one-year deal with the Browns in 2017.
He later returned to the Cowboys and had brief stints with the Jets and Washington before signing on to the Texans’ practice squad. Houston just recently released him.
In 2019, Maher appeared in 13 games for the Cowboys and made 20-30 field goal attempts (66.7 percent) as well as all 36 of his extra point attempts.
