Report: Hand Surgery For Vita Vea
June 27th, 2020
What happened to Vita Vea?
Joe’s not sure, but whatever happened it was enough to send Vea under the knife.
That’s the word from the Twittering of TampaBay.com beat writer Rick Stroud.
Bucs DT Vita Vea suffered an unspecified hand injury and underwent a minor surgical procedure a few weeks ago. He may miss some time early in camp but will not have any limitations once the regular season begins.
So, we are to believe this was minor surgery in early June and Vea will have to sit out camp seven weeks later? He can’t practice with a club covering on his hand nearly two months later? That’s seems odd to Joe.
Regardless, this Vea news comes as word flowed yesterday of Jason Pierre-Paul having “minor” knee surgery.
Joe has no reason to believe Vea’s injury came at a Tom Brady workout, which some believe is a threat to national security.

First JPP, now Vea
WTF ?
June 27th, 2020 at 10:06 am
“Word on the street”, is the injury happened due to over use!!!!!!!!!! From all the parting themselves on the back from all the sheep and local media telling them how great and unstoppable they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#suspend brady for 3 games due to public safety!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hold him accountable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hit them with another narcissistic REALISTO repost! These sheep can’t handle it!

Hey El Buco, has to be ol stale biscuit’s fault, right?
June 27th, 2020 at 10:40 am
El buço isn’t a true fan! He’s a troll account!
June 27th, 2020 at 10:41 am
it’s always one thing or another, or another and one thing, with this damn team, what’s next?
June 27th, 2020 at 10:52 am
JPP now Vea next Gronk then Brady. With the 1st pick in 2021 draft the Tampa Bay Bucs pick Trevor Lawrence.
June 27th, 2020 at 10:59 am
My guess: Gatekeeper’s Thumb. Without surgery a person loses a significant amount of grip, and a DL needs a ton of hand grip.
June 27th, 2020 at 11:04 am
Sounds like he broke his hand pretty bad!
June 27th, 2020 at 11:05 am
Neither this nor JPP are anything to worry about.
June 27th, 2020 at 11:29 am
We shall see. NO ONE IN THEIR G-D MIND WAS SAYING JPP WAS GOING TO GET 12.5 SACKS IN TEN GAMES COMING BACK FROM A BROKEN NECK. You gotta keep the faith every year around this team, especially this year. Now is the time to keep the faith in the GOAT the most true Bucs fans.

GO BUCS!!!

This is football! Someone will have a chance to step up in camp….not that V’s spot is in trouble.but someone will have a chance to develope their game …which does nothing but help the team!!! NE12 has invaded and infected ….just how will this all work out?
June 27th, 2020 at 11:36 am
As a beaten down Bucs fan I’ve come to expect non stop bad news. Believing in curses is for the sumple minded but dam I am getting there.
June 27th, 2020 at 11:57 am
staying home during quarantine and “brushing the otter” can injure hands
June 27th, 2020 at 12:00 pm
vita’s a tough guy…
he should be ok from the sounds of it…
good it’s hand as opposed to a foot…dude weighs like 350
June 27th, 2020 at 12:45 pm
Is the cause of injury completely unattainable?
If so then, it makes me wonder if it wasn’t gotten through some stupid behavior like slipping on a coconut & falling, arm-wrestling an amped-up drunk, adam’s suggestion or playing basketball.
OR
In true “Bucs Life” fashion; It’s an injury he’s had dating back to middle school & he just decided to address it now, 12 years later; two months before the season opener with the GOAT as your QB!?
June 27th, 2020 at 12:45 pm
probably had to wait longer for these procedures because of Covid19
June 27th, 2020 at 12:51 pm
Officially injury prone
June 27th, 2020 at 12:56 pm
This is the time of year all vets get surgical procedures done for injuries they played through during the season. I always wonder why they don’t take care of them earlier but this year he at least had a good reason to wait. It could have happened recently but the press release doesn’t specify when only the it happened and where on the body.
June 27th, 2020 at 1:41 pm
LMAO here. You guys ain’t seen nothin yet. Wait until our 50 million dollar man goes down and all world Gabbert has to replace him.
June 27th, 2020 at 2:04 pm
“Joe has no reason to believe Vea’s injury came at a Tom Brady workout, which some believe is a threat to national security.”
Too funny! It does seem odd. My guess is maybe some nerves recovering so he just can’t be banging it around.
June 27th, 2020 at 2:07 pm
Wait until it gets closer to players reporting, and a rash of mysterious injuries start to occur in the old vets of this team!!!!!!!!!! Some like Suh will have to weigh if it’s even worth it and will contemplate retirement!!!!!!!!!!!! And none of the “real” fans will blame any of the players that walk away with money on the table!!!!!!!!!!!! And the sheep should not be upset with any player walking away, but with the regime that loaded up for a One Year Window!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
go bucs!!!!!!!!!!!

If you think off season surgery for an NFL player makes you injury-prone, you really don’t have a clue.
June 27th, 2020 at 2:48 pm
Joe in Michigan… this year is so different. None of these guys are getting the physical rehab needed.
June 27th, 2020 at 3:31 pm
SOEbuc: Agreed. Someone posted above that Vea is “officially injury-prone”. NFL players having off season surgery is common, was my point.
June 27th, 2020 at 4:06 pm
And it is Vea were talking here. Biggest, strongest, athletic and possibly the best NT in the league.
June 27th, 2020 at 4:34 pm
Big Hog go see the wizard for a brain.
June 27th, 2020 at 5:31 pm
JPP had his knee scoped. That’s not a big deal these days. They go in and clean it up. He will be fine for camp.
Vea’s news concerns me more. Minor hand surgery doesnt keep you out 2 months.
June 27th, 2020 at 5:58 pm
EL Buco Realisto predict in your great wisdom the Bucs record this year I predict 8-8.
June 27th, 2020 at 7:31 pm
there is a 50/50 chance our record this year will be:
0-0

flo from progressive said:
“don’t bring that mess around here brady”
then she said:
“i’m gonna need you to leave”
and then tommy left the park
June 27th, 2020 at 7:55 pm
@joe.. Get rid of el buco retardo.. PLEASE
June 27th, 2020 at 8:57 pm
What is the better option? Tanking for Lawrence or Fields?
Drafting a mid 1st round QB?
Trading the farm to move up?
Reality check Buc fans! The ownership went all in on a proven winner!
Hello! Say it out loud. 6x Champ!! 43yr old, does he look like any of the 43yr old QB’s you can remember! Manning was 39 and a noodle arm.
Relax… football is a vicious sport with no promise of tomorrow be thankful we have a legit shot! Was Crabby going to lead us to the promise land?
June 27th, 2020 at 9:01 pm
Tired of the whining over being a legit contender!
Some of these fans could screw up a free meal from Meals on Wheels!
June 29th, 2020 at 12:41 am
So right now we gave 1 starting D-lineman?
Sweet!

¿So that’s what happens when you put hands on the GOAT?
