GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Things could not have gone any worse for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their start against the Arizona Cardinals, and their defensive struggles were only magnified without franchise quarterback Jameis Winston, who left Sunday's 38-33 loss with a right shoulder injury.
Winston took a crushing blow from Cardinals linebacker Chandler Jones on third down of the opening possession, falling hard on his throwing shoulder. He attempted to work through the injury but looked over at quarterbacks coach Mike Bajakian and shook his head.
Winston has never missed a game since he was drafted in 2015.
