The Tampa Bay Buccaneers keep running into more injury problems. This week’s: running back Charles Sims has missed two practices this week, which is not good news — especially so because Doug Martin isn’t healthy either, and is likely to miss Monday Night’s game against the Carolina Panthers after being out for the past two weeks.
If Sims can’t go, Jacquizz Rodgers becomes the Bucs’ main running back by default — though Dirk Koetter had already implied he’d give Rodgers more of a chance as the lead back, with Sims acting mostly in his traditional role of change-of-pace and receiving back.
