What? Of course he’s missed games. Turf toe in 2018 and he only played in 13 games. LisFranc injury in 2019 and he only played 13 games again. Nothing wrong with concerns about a commonly injured player.

Ruiz, however could be affected by an ankle depending upon the severity and he needs the reps (as he's a rookie).

The Bucs have greater concern with Evans' hammy (or, his avoiding Marshon Lattimore). Even if they rest it up until gametime there is no telling what could happen once he is full go (to get shut-down). That's a big one to watch.

I meant he hasn't missed a game THIS season. I made a bold prediction that K_Major acknowledged saying that Davenport would play every game this season, have double digit sacks and have more sacks than Clowney and Everson Griffen combined.

But, no. Not really concerned as long as the injuries are non-related. EVERY player sustains injuries during their career. Some have them intermittently throughout, others experience them later on, and others have them early and avoid them later.

I don't know about that. He is probably insurance in case Morestead or Lutz can't go. I believe he will be on the roster as insurance for our special teams aces.

I agree. In this COVID environment I would imagine you would want a ready replacement for every position. Gillikin fills two of those roles.
