The Buccaneers announced on Friday that they would be without wide receiver Antonio Brown for the NFC Championship in Green Bay but they have also activated Vita Vea who will play for the first time since week five when he suffered what was believed to be a season ending injury against the Chicago Bears.
Bruce Arians said that Brown’s knee wasn’t where they wanted it to be and that the flight to Wisconsin could cause the swelling to get worse. As a result, the Bucs will likely look to Scotty Miller and rookie Tyler Johnson to fill the void within the receiving corps.
