Tampa Bay Buccaneers to be without four starters vs. Ravens

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Buccaneers will be without four starters when they host the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night as quarterback Tom Brady tries to avoid three consecutive losses for the first time in 20 years and just the second time in his career.

The Bucs will be without starting left guard Luke Goedeke, starting defensive back Antoine Winfield Jr., wide receiver Russell Gage, starting cornerback Carlton Davis, cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting and starting tight end Cam Brate.

Wide receiver Julio Jones, who is battling a knee injury, will be a game-time decision, and defensive lineman Akiem Hicks, who returned to practice this week for the first time since suffering a foot injury in Week 2, will be doubtful, Bowles said.
