The Tampa Bay Buccaneers made a change at the place kicking position on Tuesday, releasing Shane Andrus and signing Connor Barth.

Barth, who was let go by Miami in late August, broke into the NFL with Kansas City in 2008 and made 10-of-12 field goals and all 24 point-after-attempts that year. He was then released on July 28, 2009.

Andrus appeared in three games for the Bucs this season and missed on his only field-goal attempt. He was successful on all six PATs.
