He wasn’t lighting it up throughout the first three weeks of the NFL season, but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Head Coach Dirk Koetter decided to make Shaun Wilson a healthy scratch for the teams game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday.
Tampa Bay went with three running backs in today’s 48-10 loss to the Bears. Peyton Barber, Jacquizz Rodgers, and Tampa Bay second round pick Ronald Jones was active for the first time all season instead of Wilson.
Jones got a majority of the work in the blowout, carrying the football ten times for 29 yards, while Barber received seven handoffs for 24 yards.
