The Tampa Bay Buccaneers didn’t just lose their preseason finale Saturday night; they also suffered two more injuries to their already banged-up offensive line.
Robert Hainsey (ankle) and Nick Leverett (shoulder) both left Saturday night’s game and neither returned.
After the game, Bucs head coach Todd Bowles told the media that it’s still too early to tell just how severe the injuries are, and that X-rays in the coming days would give a more specific update.
Hainsey is already replacing Pro Bowl center Ryan Jensen, who suffered a serious knee injury on the second day of training camp. Leverett was battling for the starting left guard spot, a competition that’s now missing Aaron Stinnie, who was placed on injured reserve earlier this week with a season-ending knee injury of his own.
