McCoy inactive for Bucs against Bears

Published Oct. 23, 2011 1:36 p.m. ET

Defensive tackle Gerald McCoy is inactive for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers against Chicago on Sunday. The Bears will be without safety Major Wright.

McCoy joins running back LeGarrette Blount on the inactive list for the second week in a row, having failed to recover from an ankle injury he sustained against San Francisco two weeks ago. Blount was already ruled out by coach Raheem Morris on Friday with a knee injury. Both missed last Sunday's victory over New Orleans as well.

Center Jeff Faine (biceps) is also out for the Bucs.

Earnest Graham starts at running back again after rushing for 109 yards against the Saints.

Wright has a hip injury but had been listed as probable. He was replaced by Chris Harris.

Devin Hester is active for Chicago after leaving last week's game against Minnesota with a chest injury.
