Buccaneers vs. Saints: Thursday Injury Report


Injury report number two for the game between the Buccaneers and the Saints.
More from The Pewter Plank
This is uncharted waters for Buccaneers fans. Well, maybe not uncharted, but it has certainly been a long time. It was several coaches ago that we even flirted with the playoffs like this. Feels good, am I right?
But first things first, we have some work to do. Sunday afternoon at RayJay is the opening of the season series with the always tough New Orleans Saints. Divisional matchups are always huge, and when they have Drew Brees throwing the passes, it will always be a tough test.
Let’s get right to the injuries. First, as always, for the Bucs:
Player | No. | Pos. | Injury | Wednesday | Thursday |
Chris Conte | 23 | S | Chest | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Demar Dotson | 69 | T | Concussion | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Adam Humphries | 11 | WR | Concussion | Did Not Participate | Limited Participation |
Gerald McCoy | 93 | DT | Foot | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Evan Smith | 62 | C | Knee | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |
Luke Stocker | 88 | TE | Ankle | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Alterraun Verner | 21 | CB | Not Injury Related | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Granted, it’s only one change, but it’s a good change for Bucs fans. Humphries returned to practice, albeit on a limited basis. He’s still in concussion protocol, but his seeing the field is a good sign that he is on the road to doing so on Sunday.
Now for the Saints:
Player | No. | Pos. | Injury | Wednesday | Thursday |
Terron Armstead | 72 | T | Knee/Quadriceps | Limited Participation | Did Not Participate |
Josh Hill | 89 | TE | Fibula | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Mark Ingram | 22 | RB | Toe/Knee | Limited Participation | Did Not Participate |
Senio Kelemete | 65 | G | Hip | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |
Daniel Lasco | 36 | RB | Hamstring | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |
Craig Robertson | 52 | LB | Shoulder | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Zach Strief | 64 | T | Elbow | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |
Michael Thomas | 13 | WR | Foot | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |
Max Unger | 60 | C | Foot | Limited Participation | Did Not Participate |
It’s always an enjoyable experience when your opponent has players downgraded. When they are important factors, like Ingram and Unger, it makes it even better.
We will have your game statuses tomorrow as always.
