TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield did not suffer any fractures or major structural damage to his right ankle, according to an MRI on Monday.

Mayfield was injured in a collision on a quarterback sneak on the opening drive of Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

Bowles said Mayfield is "pretty sore" but expressed optimism that the injury wasn't more severe.

"The MRI was negative," Bowles said. He has a sore ankle. We'll see how he's feeling during the week, but it came out negative so that's a good thing.
