Alex Cappa breaks arm, Demar Dotson pulls hamstring, both to miss time

The news keeps getting worse for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the beatdown they took at the hands of the New Orleans Saints. Today it was revealed that starting right guard Alex Cappa suffered a broken arm in the second quarter yesterday’s divisional lose at the Superdome; right tackle Demar Dotson was also banged up.

According to Bucs’ staff writer Carmen Vitali, Cappa played through the injury for the rest of the game with a broken arm. He is expected to miss “a few weeks” as he recovers; more than likely veteran swingman Earl Watford will start in his absence.
