WR Bryant Will Have Knee Surgery, Likely To Miss Preseason



 
Bucs head coach Raheem Morris said that wide receiver Antonio Bryant will likely miss the entire preseason due to having his knee (meniscus) scoped and is expected to be sidelined 3-4 weeks. Bryant has missed several practices with soreness in his knee. The goal is to have the surgery now in order to have him ready to go by Week 1.

Also, wide receiver Michael Clayton has been all but ruled out for the Bucs' preseason opener at Tennessee on Saturday.

Dammit! It's not so much the length of time he'll be out...it's only preseason. I just hate to hear about a knee getting scoped. It just seems like the knee always needs to be re-scoped at some point later on.
