The Salt Lake Tribune has reported that Roy Miller has signed a four-year deal with the Buccaneers.

Third-round draft pick Roy Miller, a defensive tackle from Texas, agreed to a four-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who cut backup quarterback Brian Griese to make room on their roster.

Aaron Wilson from Profootballtalk.com reports on the details of Roy Miller’s contract deal.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers third-round defensive tackle Roy Miller’s four-year rookie contract includes a $770,000 signing bonus, according to a league source.

The total base value of the deal is worth $2.52 million, which includes minimum base salaries of $310,000, $395,000, $480,000 and $565,000.

However, the maximum value of Miller’s contract could be boosted significantly by a fourth-year escalator clause, according to our source.

Drafted 81st overall, the former University of Texas lineman registered 138 career tackles and 10 sacks for the Longhorns.

As a senior, the 6’1,” 310-pounder posted 49 tackles, 11 tackles for losses and 5 1/2 sacks.

Congratulations! Roy! Go Bucs!
