Injuries have already started to pile up on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a big way, with some notable players already being taken off the board.
The degree to which the injury bug has chewed through the roster varies. Chris Godwin was already going to miss time to start the season as he recovers from a severely dislocated ankle he suffered last October. Tristan Wirfs underwent offseason knee surgery, which means he is also going to miss at least the first few weeks of the season, while Antoine Winfield Jr., Jamel Dean, and Christian Izien were all sidelined with injuries.
