Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers held on to one of their veteran offensive linemen, as they re-signed unrestricted free agent Cosey Coleman.

Coleman has started all but one game for the Buccaneers over the last three seasons. In 2003, he started five games at left guard and 11 at the other guard position as Tampa Bay battled injuries along its offensive line all season.

The 6-foot-4, 320-pounder, 25, was selected by the Bucs in the second round of the 2000 NFL Draft out of Tennessee.
