Hawley signed a two-year deal to remain with the team.
Hawley, 28, has spent his two seasons in Tampa Bay snapping for quarterback Jameis Winston. He rotated as a starter at the position with veteran Evan Smith in 2016, and was a strong leader in the Bucs locker room for the trench group following the retirement of Logan Mankins.
