Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage will miss the 2023 season with a knee injury suffered at Wednesday's joint practice with the New York Jets, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Gage was carted off the practice field in Florham Park, New Jersey, with the injury. He was in tears as he was leaving the field, with teammates taking a knee around him.
"We hear it's going to be pretty serious, and I'll wait to hear the final results," coach Todd Bowles said after the practice.
Gage's injury was noncontact, sustained while he was backpedaling during 7-on-7 drills.
