The Buccaneers are looking to end a two game skid and they have some help coming back for the prime time matchup against the New York Giants. Tight end Rob Gronkowski and cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting are back for the Buccaneers and will play tonight. The Bucs also activated long snapper Zach Triner who has been dealing with a torn ligament in his finger.
Murphy-Bunting hasn’t played since dislocating his elbow in week one against the Dallas Cowboys. With Carlton Davis still dealing with a quad injury and Richard Sherman now shelved with a calf injury, getting Murphy-Bunting back to help a battered secondary will certainly boost the Bucs’ pass defense in a big way.
