The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have to finish the season without wide receiver Louis Murphy, who tore his ACL on a 29-yard catch against Washington yesterday. That, at least, is what the receiver told ESPN's Josina Anderson, though early speculation pointed in that direction as well, and Pewter Report first reported today that the Bucs "feared" the same injury.
With Murphy out and Vincent Jackson suffering an undisclosed knee injury yesterday, the Bucs currently have just three healthy receivers on the roster in Mike Evans, Russell Shepard and Donteea Dye.
