TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers outside linebacker Shaquil Barrett will miss the rest of the 2022 season after suffering a torn Achilles, coach Todd Bowles said Friday.
An MRI on Friday confirmed the Achilles tear, with a source telling ESPN's Adam Schefter that Barrett is expected to be out seven to nine months.
"It's a tough break for him," Bowles said. "Any time you lose somebody like that that commands double-teams, it makes it harder for everybody else. He's been consistent since he's been here. He's been productive. He started off playing well last night.
