Buccaneers QB Blaine Gabbert's Shoulder Injury Diagnosed as Dislocation

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians confirmed to reporters that backup quarterback Blaine Gabbert suffered a dislocated left shoulder during the team's 13-12 preseason win over the Cleveland Browns Friday night.

It hasn't been decided yet if the injury will require surgery, but Gabbert wore a sling while leaving the field postgame:

Arians added that he would feel "more than comfortable" if third-string quarterback Ryan Griffin has to move to No. 2 on the depth chart in place of Gabbert.
