Tampa Bay Buccaneers center Robert Hainsey appears to have avoided a major injury.
Hainsey underwent X-rays Sunday morning, and his ankle injury doesn’t appear to be a long-term situation, per NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
After replacing Pro Bowl center Ryan Jensen, who suffered a serious knee injury early in training camp, Hainsey suffered his injury early in the second quarter of Saturday night’s preseason finale against the Indianapolis Colts.
Hopefully, Hainsey is able to return to full strength in time for Week 1, which Wilson says is still in play.
