Bucs expected to sign LSU QB Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson - QB - College Player
May 6, 2012 - 1:20 PM ET

The Buccaneers are expected to sign LSU QB Jordan Jefferson.

Jefferson was invited to rookie tryouts and was apparently good enough to warrant a longer look. The former LSU standout was not highly regarded heading into April's draft, especially after a poor performance in the BCS title game after which he questioned the team's gameplan. In addition, he was involved in a bar fight in August that resulted in a simple battery charge and a four-game suspension. Jefferson will compete with Brett Ratliff for the No. 3 job.
