Buccaneers Defense Will Be Missing Key Starters Sunday
2 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that cornerback Carlton Davis (shoulder), defensive back Logan Ryan (knee), offensive tackle Donovan Smith (foot) and linebacker Carl Nassib (pectoral) have been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. The Bucs are already locked into the NFC's No. 4 seed after winning the NFC South division last week with their win over the Carolina Panthers, so they have nothing to play for this weekend and will rest some of their injured defenders. Even with Davis, Ryan and Nassib out, Tampa's defensive unit in fantasy will be attractive against a Falcons offense playing out the string as well.
