The Facts:
Leftwich doesn't plan on standing on the sideline after signing a two-year, $7.5 million deal with the Bucs. "I was told from Day 1 they want me to come in and compete, and that's the only way you want it," Leftwich, 29, said. "Once you have an opportunity to compete, I can live with any scenario at that point. It's all I can ask for."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
A free agent since February, Leftwich didn't receive much interest until the Redskins invited him to throw two weeks ago. The Steelers also wanted him to return. But the chance to compete for a starting job was what prompted him to eventually sign with the Bucs.
