After benefitting from a mini bye week that came after their Thursday Night Football win over the Eagles on Oct. 14, the Buccaneers (5-1) returned to Raymond James Stadium on Sunday afternoon to host the Chicago Bears (3-3).
The story of Tampa Bay’s season, to this point, has been about fighting through key injury after key injury and somehow still managing to win. Coming into a matchup against the Bears, who came away with a 20-19 win when these two teams met in Chicago last October, the Bucs didn’t get much reprieve from the injury bug.
