Tampa Bay Buccaneers to be without Jason Pierre-Paul, Jaydon Mickens vs. Los Angeles Rams

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be without starting outside linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul and kick returner Jaydon Mickens for Sunday's game at the Los Angeles Rams, coach Bruce Arians announced Friday.

He also called wide receiver Antonio Brown, who was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list earlier this week, "very questionable," although it's unlikely he will play. Brown would need to be completely asymptomatic for 24 hours and pass two COVID-19 tests 24 hours apart before he'd be permitted to travel, per NFL rules.

Pierre-Paul has been dealing with hand and shoulder injuries.
