As if Tampa Bay needed anymore bad news.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that the Buccaneers’ young tight end O.J. Howard may miss some time after suffering a knee injury in Sunday’s game in Chicago. The injury came just before halftime.
Buccaneers’ TE O.J. Howard sprained his MCL and is expected to miss 2-4 weeks, per source.

The timeframe isn’t bad, considering it could have been much worse. Regardless, his production will be missed.
Howard has been a crucial piece to the Bucs offense so far in 2018.
