Narrative:

A cessna 182 was established on the final with a landing clearance to runway 29. I was on the local control position and had cleared the aircraft to land on runway 29. [The] C182 was the first aircraft to the runway followed by a cirrus which was 5 miles away from the field. I checked the aircraft for gear using provided binoculars when the aircraft was on a 1 mile final. As the C182 touched down; it appeared as if the aircraft bounced and went to the right side of the runway. As the aircraft touched back down; I saw the aircraft on the north side of the runway rolling out in the grass area. I advised the aircraft to say intentions. The pilot advised that he 'had to get his feet untangled.' the controller in charge advised me to get persons on board and to shut down the engine as the crash response personnel were already on their way to the scene. I received the other runway from ground control and had the other aircraft over-fly the airport and enter a downwind for the intersecting runway. [The] C182 was able to taxi to parking without assistance with no other problems.
