Larry English

English had to be carted off the field so this isn't much of a surprise. The extent of his knee injury is unknown, but Tampa Bay is keeping their fingers crossed. The veteran defensive end was slated to begin the season as a reserve for the Buccaneers.

English was penciled in to make the Buccaneers final roster, but those plans could change after Thursday's injury. The veteran defensive end injury his knee, but the extent of the injury is unknown at this time. Tampa Bay will likely update his status on Friday.

In six seasons, English has 103 tackles in 64 games including 12 sacks. The last thing the Buccaneers need right now is to re-sign their mediocre defensive players, which is of course exactly what they are doing. Any fantasy players who expect Lovie Smith to turn the defense around in his second season in Tampa need to think again.

English backs up Michael Johnson on the defensive line, so the impact isn\'t enormous here. Monitor his practice schedule for the rest of the week to see if he\'ll be able to play this weekend.
