Buccaneers place safety Logan Ryan (foot) on injured reserve

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Tuesday placed starting safety Logan Ryan on injured reserve.

Ryan has been dealing with a Jones fracture in his foot that he suffered in Week 4 against the Kansas City Chiefs, and he'll undergo surgery Wednesday, a source told ESPN.

The plan is for him to be out for six weeks, and to return in time for December and a postseason run, the source said. The Bucs didn't initially place Ryan on injured reserve because they wanted to see how much the injury could heal naturally.
