Jensen had serious interest from the Colts before agreeing to the deal with the Buccaneers.
Jensen, 26, is a former sixth-round pick by the Ravens in the 2013 NFL Draft. The Ravens decided to waive him after one year with the team and later re-signed him to their practice squad.
Baltimore later promoted him to their active roster then re-signed with the team on a one-year exclusive rights contract in 2016. Last year, Jensen returned to Baltimore on a one-year, restricted deal and was testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his career.
In 2017, Jensen appeared in all 16 games for the Ravens and was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 9 center out of 36 qualifying players.
