The Buccaneers lost at home to the Panthers on Sunday. But it looks like they won’t be losing guard Logan Mankins for an extended period of time.
Per a league source, it appears for now that Mankins suffered a mild hyperextension and a bad bruise. It’s not a long-term injury.
They need Mankins back, and they need everyone else to play better if they’re going to turn around a disappointing start to the 2014 regular season.
