TAMPA -- It took free agency to create some gaping holes in the NFL's best defense.
Bucs linebacker Al Singleton became the second starter to leave the Super Bowl champs in as many days when he signed a four-year contract with the Cowboys on Thursday. Terms weren't released, but the deal was believed to be worth about $8-million and include a $2-million signing bonus.
The 6-foot-2, 228-pound Singleton spent six seasons with Tampa Bay. He became a starter last season when Shelton Quarles moved to middle linebacker. Singleton finished with a career-high 89 tackles.
Funny he's only been a starter for 3 years - overpaid - and not a 3-4 backer
bye bye!
