The Buccaneers are going to be short-handed when it comes to their defensive line, as the team lost DT Vita Vea Thursday to a broken ankle.
The injury took place in the fourth quarter of the game. He is going to have more tests on Friday to confirm that the ankle is broken.
If the ankle is indeed broken, Vea’s season will be over.
This season Vea has started every game, and against Chicago has three tackles with a sack and one tackle for loss.
On the season he has 10 tackles and two sacks.
With Vea on the sidelines, look for Rakeem Nunez-Roches to step in and get playing time.
