Dolphins' David Rivers: Signs with Dolphins
Rivers agreed to a deal with the Dolphins on Tuesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Rivers spent the majority of his first two seasons in the league on the Buccaneers' practice squad but did suit up for three games along the way. While the Dolphins will give him a look during training camp, he will presumably need to make an impression if he wants an opportunity to land on the team's 53-man roster.

David Rivers: Signs with Tampa Bay
The Buccaneers signed Rivers to a contract Wednesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
The Buccaneers poached Rivers from the Dolphins' practice squad to add depth in the secondary after cornerback Vernon Hargreaves (hamstring) and safety Justin Evans (ankle) were placed on injured reserve.
