TAMPA, Fla. — Canadian tight end Antony Auclair agreed to a one-year contract extension with the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday.

Auclair, of Notre-Dame-des-Pins, Que., is entering his fourth season with Tampa Bay after joining the NFL squad as an undrafted free agent out of Laval.

The Bucs use the six-foot-six, 256-pound Auclair mainly as a blocker. The 26-year-old Canadian has 10 catches for 84 yards over his NFL career.

Auclair was placed on season-ending injured reserve last November after suffering a toe injury in a game versus the Seattle Seahawks.
