Antonio Leak has agreed to terms with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Where he'll be playing for the Bucs is to be determined.

Leak, the former Henderson State defensive standout, worked at linebacker, fullback and special teams. Agent Judy Henry said Tampa Bay will continue to to evaluate Leak, though outside linebacker could be his primary spot.

Below is a statement from Henry, who notes Leak has signed a three-year deal:

"Antonio practiced at three positions for the Buccaneers -- FB, OLB and special teams. The Buccs were impressed with Antonio's versatility and signed him to a three-year contract. Antonio is not only willing, but confident in playing on either side of the ball and on special teams. Based on discussions with Tampa Bay, I expect Antonio to contribute to the team at all three positions with OLB being his primary position when returning to camp next week."

Leak was one of 13 free agents signed by the Bucs following a recent minicamp, including Arkansas running back De’Anthony Curtis.

Tampa Bay signed Leak to a three-year deal, according to a source. He is expected to work some at both positions.

Leak was a first-team All Great American Conference defensive player at Henderson State. He finished with 33 tackles, including 12.5 for loss. Leak also had six quarterback hurries, two forced fumbles and two blocked kicks.
