Tampa Bay Buccaneers football is almost back. The Bucs play the Cincinnati Bengals at 7:30 p.m. ET today in the team’s first preseason game of the year. Not quite real football, yet, but it’s good enough for now.
The Bucs will be without wide receiver Donteea Dye, cornerback Brent Grimes, cornerback Jude Adjei-Barimah, linebacker Adarius Glanton, center Ali Marpet, center Evan Smith, defensive end Jacquies Smith (PUP) and defensive end George Johnson tonight. Aside from Jacquies Smith and Jude Adjei-Barimah, those players are mostly suffering from minor injuries.
