TAMPA — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers haven’t given up on the idea of wide receiver Vincent Jackson being well enough to play in their game against the Falcons on Sunday.
Jackson, who has missed practice all this week after suffering a knee injury in the Bucs loss at Washington last week, will be listed as doubtful for this week’s game.
“Any of our guys that have been around for a while, veteran players, if they wake up on Sunday morning and says they’re ready to go and the trainer says they’re ready to go, they can go,’’ Bucs coach Lovie Smith said.
