Bucs OLB Out For The Rest Of The Season

It didn’t look good when Bucs outside linebacker Shaq Barrett left Thursday night’s game in the third quarter with an achilles injury. After an MRI on Friday, it was official that Barrett will be out for the rest of the season.

Head coach Todd Bowles confirmed as such the day after the game.

“He’s got an achilles (injury), he’ll be out for the rest of the year,” Bowles said. “Tough break for him. Anytime you lose a guy like that that commands double teams, it makes it harder for everybody else. He’s been consistent since he’s been here. He started out playing well last night. It’s a shame to see.”
