TAMPA, Fla. - Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles ruled out defensive tackle Vita Vea, outside linebacker Genard Avery, outside linebacker Carl Nassib and cornerback Jamel Dean for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals, while Bengals coach Zac Taylor said he "feels good about" the game status for wide receivers Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins.
Boyd suffered a dislocated finger in the team's Week 14 23-10 win over the Cleveland Browns, while Higgins played just one snap with a lingering hamstring injury.
