| TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed the franchise tag on kicker Connor Barth, whos coming off the most productive season of his career. Barth converted 15 consecutive field goal attempts to finish 26 of 28 in 2011. His club-record 92.9 field goal percentage was second in the NFL last season. In three seasons with the Bucs, Barth has gone 63 of 75 on field goals and 71 of 71 on extra points. In just his second game with the team, he became the first Tampa Bay player -- and fourth in league history -- to make three field goals of 50 or more yards in the same game. Barths agent said the player remains hopeful of negotiating a long-term contract with the Bucs. "I have been negotiating with the Buccaneers on a contract for Connor," Rob Roche, president of RSR Sports Management LLC, said in a statement. "It is my hope that our negotiations will continue and result in a long-term contract that will reflect Connors status as one of the elite kickers in the National Football League."

Here are just a few of the seemingly endless entertaining moments that made Ryans time as Jets coach one of the most-talked about NFL tenures in recent memory:HERES REX: It took Ryan only a few seconds into his first news conference to win over Jets fans with talk of winning Super Bowls, fielding a tough team and changing the way outsiders looked at the franchise. The message to the rest of the league is, Ryan said, hey, the Jets are coming, and were going to give you everything weve got, and thats going to be, I think, more than you can handle.LORD OF THE RINGS: Never one to back down from a challenge, Ryan made it clear that he was aiming for Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots when he declared during a radio interview that he didnt come to New York to kiss Belichicks rings. Well, Ryan won just four of 13 meetings with Belichicks Patriots, who were AFC East champions during all six years of Ryans tenure.WHOOPS: Ryan mistakenly announced the Jets were out of the playoff hunt in 2009 moments after they lost to Atlanta. Only problem? New York was still alive — barely. The Jets won their last two games of the season to squeak into the playoffs and go on the first of two straight runs to the AFC title game.SNACK TIME!: Ryan and the Jets were naturals on HBOs Hard Knocks in 2010, and the colorful coach delivered perhaps the line of the entire documentary series during a team meeting the night before a preseason game. Upset by his teams lack of professionalism on the practice field, Ryan lit into his players with an expletive-laced tirade — he had quite a few of those — and capped it by demanding everyone eat a snack.REX-PLICIT: Ryans foul mouth got him into plenty of trouble. After flipping off a fan at an MMA event in Miami in 2010, Ryan was fined $50,000. He shouted a profanity while walking off the field in New England the next year and was fined $75,000. Ryan got docked $100,000 earlier this season when he shouted another expletive to someone on the field at the end of the Jets win over the Pittsburghh Steelers.ddddddddddddPERSONAL MATTER: When suggestive online videos surfaced in 2010 that appeared to feature Ryan and his wife, gossip and entertainment news outlets flocked to Florham Park to ask the coach about them. Ryan, clearly embarrassed, repeatedly replied: Its a personal matter, while never confirming or denying whether he and his wife were in the leaked videos.TATTS ALL: The coach showed up for the first day of training camp practice in 2011 sporting a tribal-style tattoo on his right calf, something he got while he on vacation in Hawaii earlier that summer. Turned out, Ryan was only getting started. While on vacation in January 2013, Ryan was photographed with a tattoo on his right arm featuring his wife wearing a Mark Sanchez No. 6 Jets jersey.SKINNY REX: Tattoos werent the only thing Ryan changed on his body while with the Jets. The once-portly coach weighed nearly 350 pounds during his first season, but he underwent Lap-Band surgery in March 2010 and has lost over 110 pounds — and counting — since.WIGGING OUT: Rex Ryan pulled off a perfect Rob Ryan, making fun of his twin brother during a news conference in 2010. With the Jets preparing to play the Browns, for whom Rob was the defensive co-ordinator, Rex walked to the podium wearing a blond wig, Browns baseball cap and T-shirt and stuffed a pillow under his shirt to imitate his brothers ample stomach. He then answered questions as if he were Rob: I think Rex is a great coach and I think hes a great person. Theres no question about that. Hes very handsome.SOON-TO-BE CHAMPS: Ryan often boasted that he believed the Jets would win a Super Bowl. During training camp in 2010, he put his guarantee in writing when he scribbled Soon to be Champs on ESPNs tour bus in Cortland, New York. Well, the Jets finished a win from the Super Bowl that season, and fans are still waiting.RUNNING WITH BULLS: Ryan spent part of his summer vacation in 2013 running from angry bulls, participating in the running of the bulls at the San Fermin festival in Pamplona, Spain. Ryan was photographed wearing white pants, a red T-shirt with a picture of a bull in the middle — with the words Bad Toro printed underneath — and a red bandanna around his neck.SIDEWAYS: Ryan was peppered with questions regarding his doomed decision to replace Geno Smith by putting Sanchez into a preseason game in the fourth quarter in 2013 — which resulted in the quarterback suffering a season-ending shoulder injury. An angry and defiant Ryan turned his back to a reporter at one point. I can say anything I want. Thats the beauty of this country. I can answer it 100 times. Ill stand backward and answer the question. Im going sideways.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL wholesale jerseys wholesale nfl jerseys china jerseys from china nfl jerseys cheap authentic cheap jerseys ' ' ' |
