How long will KJ Britt be out?
It is unclear whether Britt will be able to return to the game. He was replaced by reserve linebacker JJ Russell, although recent roster addition Vi Jones will also work in Britt's place.
Bucs LB depth chart
The Bucs have assembled their inside linebackers, with Britt typically taking early down snaps. Britt has been noticed this year due to pass loss and saw a decreased usage compared to last season when he took over for Devin White.
The position itself doesn't have much depth to handle a serious injury, so the Bucs are hoping it's just a minor injury.
