The Tampa Bay Buccaneers keep losing players to injury in every single game the play. This time, it’s center Evan Smith. The lineman suffered a knee injury early in the first half, and was officially ruled out for the game just after the half. It’s not clear how serious his injury was.
Smith himself was starting for Joe Hawley, who was forced to miss this game with a knee injury. Also missing this game with an injury: starting left guard Kevin Pamphile, because of a concussion. Pamphile himself was only starting because free agent signing J.R. Sweezy has not been healthy at any point this entire year.
