Devin White Might Not Be Out Long
5 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers rookie linebacker Devin White (knee), who went down with a knee injury just six plays into Thursday's game against the Panthers, has a Grade 1 MCL sprain and is day-to-day, according to head coach Bruce Arians. White could miss a game or two, but he's also got the advantage of having extra rest ahead of Week 3 against the Giants. "Knowing him, [he] could possibly be back, but he’s walking without a brace right now, so [we’ll] keep our fingers crossed," said Arians. White is a potential difference-maker in his rookie season and also calls the plays when he's on the field, so losing him for any amount of time would be bad news for a Bucs defense that looks to have improved quite a bit from a season ago. Tampa's defense still isn't in play for fantasy owners, however, although they'll have a good matchup against the Giants next week.
