TAMPA - Safety Dexter Jackson is leaving the Bucs - again.
The most valuable player of Super Bowl XXXVII has agreed to a four-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals worth $7-million.
In his second stint as a starter with the Bucs, Jackson played in 11 games and was limited by a recurring hamstring injury. He finished with 54 tackles and one interception.
Jackson's departure leaves the Bucs with little depth at safety behind starters Jermaine Phillips and Will Allen.
