Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 MCL sprain in his right knee and is currently listed as day-to-day. The injury occurred during the Bucs' recent game against the Detroit Lions, where Vea was inadvertently injured by teammate YaYa Diaby. Despite the injury, Vea was seen in good spirits post-game, wearing a brace but able to put weight on both feet. The Buccaneers are also managing the absence of another defensive tackle, Calijah Kancey, due to a calf injury. Additionally, running back Rachaad White suffered a groin injury during the game but is not expected to miss significant time.
- Vita Vea's injury could impact the Buccaneers' defensive line depth.
- The Bucs are managing multiple injuries as they prepare for their next game.
