The Buccaneers have placed safety Justin Evans and tight end Alan Cross on injured reserve, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Evans, a second-round pick in 2017, played 10 games this season. He missed the past two games with a toe injury and four of the past five with the injury.
He finished with 59 tackles, an interception, a fumble recovery he returned for a touchdown and two pass breakups.
Cross left Sunday’s game with a shoulder injury.
The third-year veteran played all 14 games, with three starts, and made two catches for 9 yards.
The team announced it promoted tight end Donnie Ernsberger to the active roster from the practice squad. He originally entered the league as a college free agent out of Western Michigan this spring.
He spent the offseason and preseason with the Buccaneers.
