Jeff Chaney joins Warrick Dunn as former Seminole running backs on the Bucs' roster

The Buccaneers, never shy about bringing in talent from the state of Florida's high-powered college programs, added another running back from Florida State on Thursday, signing the Seminoles' Jeff Chaney.

Chaney is the 19th undrafted free agent to be added to the Buccaneers' roster since the draft ended Sunday evening. The team announced 15 additions early Monday afternoon, added two later in the day and then brought on Chaney and Clemson defensive tackle Terry Jolly on Thursday.

All 19, plus the team's nine draft choices, will join the veterans on Friday for the beginning of the team's three-day mini-camp.

Chaney joins two-time Pro Bowl choice Warrick Dunn as former Seminole backs on the Bucs' roster. He is also the second college free agent back to head to Tampa, following East Carolina's Jamie Wilson.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers today announced that they have signed former Florida State running back Jeff Chaney and former Clemson defensive tackle Terry Jolly.

At Florida State, Chaney saw action at running back in each of his final three seasons after starting his career on defense in the secondary. He rushed for 1,091 yards on 234 carries with 10 touchdowns in his career. Last season, Chaney ranked second in rushing for the Seminoles with 346 yards on 71 attempts and three touchdowns.

Chaney hails from Lake Wales, Fla.
