Real tests on the horizon for Jensen’s potential replacements

Questions surrounding the potential decision the Buccaneers have to make at center after the injury to veteran Ryan Jensen still loom. Despite head coach Todd Bowles saying Jense could miss months, there has yet to be a timetable set.

But work continues at training camp which now includes evaluating who will take the starting job at center.

Speaking to the media Saturday, Bowles was asked about one potential candidate to take on that role in offensive lineman Robert Hainsey and made sure to include Nick Leverett in the conversation.

“He’s very smart – going to the right places and doing the right things out of pads,” Bowles said.
