Kicker Connor Barth finding his place with Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Posted Sep 6, 2010
Connor Barth says that, especially in the life of a kicker, the NFL "stands for 'Not for Long.'" Barth, 24, knows from experience, having been on three teams in three seasons. He was the Bucs' third kicker last year and did a solid job, including making three field goals of 50 yards or more against Miami. But Barth, who will start in Week 1 for the first time, hopes he's the last leg of the Bucs' kicking carousel.
