Bucs running back Earnest Graham was placed on the injured reserve list this morning. His season is finished.

The PewterReport.com has reported that running back Earnest Graham is done for the year, placed on injured reserve this morning.

Linebacker Geno Hayes met the same fate as he injured his knee on special teams.

Graham rushed for 563 yards (4.3 avg.) and four touchdowns before sustaining a serious ankle injury vs. the Vikings last Sunday. He was the primary ball carrier for Tampa Bay’s offense, which ranks 14th in the NFL in rushing.

Obviously, Joe is bummed about this. Joe is also scared Warrick Dunn will be too worn down for a playoff run and that Cadillac Williams simply isn’t ready.

So Michael Bennett was expendable? Nice job Chucky!
