According to Ian Rapoport, the Buccaneers are signing K Cairo Santos to a contract after he worked out for the team earlier in the day.
The Buccaneers just waived K Chandler Catanzaro, so a move was expected to be made by Tuesday.
Santos, 26, wound up signing on with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent out of Tulane back in 2014. He returned to the Chiefs this past March on a one-year restricted deal worth $1.797 million.
Kansas City elected to place him on injured reserve with a groin strain at the start of the season and cut him loose with a settlement soon after. The Bears later signed him to a contract before placing him on injured reserve for the second time during the 2017 season.
The Jets signed Santos to a contract this past March but released him during the preseason. He signed on with the Rams last month, but he lasted just a few weeks in L.A.
In 2018, Santos has appeared in two games for the Rams and converted 5 of 6 field goal attempts and 5 of 6 extra point tries.
