The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face the New Orleans Saints on Sunday without two key offensive starters. Rachaad White and Graham Barton have been ruled out for their Week 6 matchup on the road.
Rachaad White was on the injury report all week with a foot injury, and after being limited in practice, the team decided to play it safe. In his place will be rookie Bucky Irving, who has flashed whenever he touches the ball this season.
Another rookie, Graham Barton, will be inactive after appearing on the team’s injury report after their Week 5 loss to the Falcons. He will miss the game due to a hamstring injury, and Robert Hainsey will start in his place.
Other inactives for the game include Trey Palmer, Kameron Johnson, Christian Izien, and Devin Culp. The wide receiver group missing both Johnson and Palmer means the Bucs will rely on the Oklahoma connection of Sterling Shepard and Baker Mayfield to Gardner results for a third straight week.
