TAMPA, Fla. -- Buccaneers inside linebacker Lavonte David, one of Tampa Bay's top players on defense, suffered a torn meniscus, head coach Bruce Arians said Monday.
A source told ESPN that David underwent arthroscopic surgery on the injury Sunday. The team doesn't believe the injury will affect him during the regular season.
"We're gonna hold him out for a while. Nothing serious," Arians said. "He'll be ready to go soon."
David had missed three days of practice.
