The last injury report of the week for the Bucs is out before their road trip and there are several key players that are listed as questionable. This is still an upgrade from previous weeks, though, where Lavonte David, Rob Gronkowski and Richard Sherman have all been out. Those three are questionable to play along with cornerback Dee Delaney and outside linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul, who didn’t practice in Week 7 either but still played in the game. The only player that has officially been ruled out is wide receiver Antonio Brown.
