Roberto Aguayo was set for a pretty awful rest of the football offseason and regular season after he got cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, it seems he's already found a new home as he was claimed off waivers according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Aguayo was cut after he missed a PAT and a 47-yard field goal against the Cincinnati Bengals on Friday. His struggles have been well documented since he was taken incredibly high in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft. After becoming the most accurate kicker in ACC history and third-most in NCAA history, Aguayo went 22-of-31 last year on field goal kicks and missed two PATs.
