Rookie linebacker Josiah Trotter.
Rough start for two Bucs rookies.
Inside linebacker Josiah Trotter continues to deal with a shoulder issue. (Thursday video below from WFLA-TV’s Aileen Hnatiuk). Meanwhile, Miami Mauler edge rusher Rueben Bain remains sidelined by a groin problem.
The Trotter injury especially troubles Joe. Through two games, Trotter is the big Bucs playmaker on defense. If he can’t go Sunday, that likely means the Bucs will turn to SirVocea Dennis, the guy they worked hard to replace as a starter in the offseason.
