Brent Grimes suffers apparent rib injury against Browns

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are getting pretty banged up while dominating the Cleveland Browns in their third preseason game. Mike Evans suffered a minor foot injury, but told CBS that he was fine. And now Brent Grimes had to leave the game with what looked to be a rib injury.

Veteran Alterraun Verner replaced Grimes on the outside, with Jude Adjei-Barimah coming in to play the slot on third downs. Vernon Hargreaves is the Bucs’ other starting cornerback.

Grimes had been struggling a little in this game, giving up a deep touchdown to Josh Gordon. An earlier completion to Gordon did not appear to be his fault, though.
