ARLINGTON, Texas — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be missing both tight end Cade Otton and linebacker K.J. Britt during their Sunday night matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
Otton has been ruled out due to a knee injury, marking the first game he has missed this season. He has achieved impressive career statistics this year, recording 600 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Meanwhile, Britt is unable to play for the third consecutive game as he continues to recover from an ankle injury. Prior to his absence, he ranked fourth on the team in tackles.
In addition to Otton and Britt, safety Antoine Winfield has also been ruled out for the Buccaneers, as he deals with a knee injury that has kept him sidelined for the second week in a row.
On the Cowboys’ side, linebacker Eric Kendricks will not participate in the game due to a calf injury, despite taking part in a pregame workout. T.J. Bass, who filled in as the starting right guard last week, will also sit out due to a thigh injury.
However, rookie center Cooper Beebe is set to make his return after being absent for one game, and he will resume his position in the starting lineup. As a result, Brock Hoffman, who filled in for Beebe during his absence, will shift back to the right guard position while Bass recuperates.
One positive note for the Cowboys is that star edge rusher Micah Parsons is active for the game, following his appearance on the injury report earlier in the week due to an illness.
