Devin White Downgraded
September 7th, 2019Bruce Arians was right. The flu-like bug is going around.
This time the victim is first-round draft pick Devin White.
The Bucs this morning downgraded White’s status for tomorrow’s season opener against the 49ers to “questionable” with what is termed as an “illness.” The virus was not specified but the team has been hit with it, as Arians discussed after practice Friday.
Bucs stud receiver Mike Evans did not practice yesterday due to having a virus. Bucco Bruce Arians did note yesterday that this viral strain seems to run its course in 24 hours.
If White cannot go, it will push back his NFL debut until likely Thursday at Carolina.

Its not the flu. Influenza lasts more than 24 hours. 3-7 days is typical.
September 7th, 2019 at 10:57 am
Not too worried. The Bucs have all the advances of modern technology, with the money to pay for it. He’ll be good.
September 7th, 2019 at 10:58 am
is it the flu or are they trying to protect the latest draft mistake.
September 7th, 2019 at 11:03 am
Arian’s MRSA curse. I swear this team has a hex
September 7th, 2019 at 11:04 am
Dehydration is going to be a huge challenge Sunday afternoon especially for guys who are ill.
September 7th, 2019 at 11:07 am
Now they have week 1 excuses lined with flu…they can focus on week 2 excuses maybe blame refs whatever it is bucfan is never lacking in excuses
September 7th, 2019 at 11:20 am
TPax whatever it is I hope you catch it and can’t post here for a couple days
September 7th, 2019 at 11:21 am
tmaxcon MIGHT BE ON POINT.

WINSTON HAD A BAD GAME BECAUSE HIS TEAMMATES HAD THE FLU

how about a post comparing Chernobyl survivor stories with those of ex-buc players on how they survived minor league buc facilitates. seems like bucs have ruined more careers than Chernobyl disaster which makes it a fair comparison. i bet most players would rather return to culverhouse’s double wide than dance with MRSA
September 7th, 2019 at 12:06 pm
Sad part TBBF is how many posters on here are hoping that we will lose just so they can say they were correct. Sounds like a fan.

Someone went out and ate some bad cheese
September 7th, 2019 at 12:14 pm
Antonio Brown is released by the Raiders. AB always has a chip on his shoulder. It’s going to be his downfall cuz he’s always gonna make it about him and how he has to stick it to the man every time.
September 7th, 2019 at 12:15 pm
AB released by Raiders. Sad part will be somebody else will sign him and he knows it.
September 7th, 2019 at 12:24 pm
We got some depth. We’ll be good.
September 7th, 2019 at 12:24 pm
It’s not flu season yet, if it was they’d be talking about on the news. It usually hits in the schools first, and I know plenty of people who work in schools, my wife included, and there’s nothing going around right now. If there was a mystery bug biting the Bucs, wouldn’t they all be on antibiotics just in case? Grown men in peak condition, with the best doctors money can buy shouldn’t be getting sick from some mystery illness.
September 7th, 2019 at 12:31 pm
24hrs? Sounds like a stomach flu. That could be a sh!tty situation game day literally
September 7th, 2019 at 12:33 pm
The Bucs need to lose those crappy white pants BTW.
September 7th, 2019 at 12:34 pm
As long as it’s not MSRA, at least it’s a home game and guys can recover at home – locker room is one thing, but the whole darn team could get this on a plane
September 7th, 2019 at 12:54 pm
Soooo can we ease up on Djacks just a bit now that AB just showed what Rock bottom looks like with Diva WRs. Never got this bad with Mesean.
September 7th, 2019 at 1:06 pm
Stomach flus do not have rules other than they make people barf.
September 7th, 2019 at 1:06 pm
Why do these bugs always happen to the bucs? Who allows the rooms to get like this? God people wash your hands
September 7th, 2019 at 1:10 pm
Antonio Brown wants to play for Bruce Arians.
September 7th, 2019 at 1:13 pm
@cgmaster27 nah, bro, you’ve just got the SADS because your boy Jameis has had more EXCUSES for his Turnover Machine play than any player in NFL history.
September 7th, 2019 at 1:16 pm
Are the janitors at One Buc Place still from Schianos staff?
September 7th, 2019 at 1:30 pm
Look for Jerry Jones to sign Antonio Brown
September 7th, 2019 at 1:38 pm
This team is probably going to lose this week I hope I’m worng.
September 7th, 2019 at 1:40 pm
Jesus bombard yourself with echinacea, astragalus, garlic, vitamin C, zinc, ginger and you’ll be fine in 24 hours
September 7th, 2019 at 1:42 pm
LOL Not sure they need him but it is an interesting thought.
September 7th, 2019 at 2:05 pm
AB will need a team who has no clear cut star WR on its roster to take targets from AB, who will stroke his Ego and coddle his diva attitude, who will not hold him to team standards or expectations and who will give him the most money. Basically he needs to play for the Unicorns.
September 7th, 2019 at 2:05 pm
Wear the dark pants, Bucs.
September 7th, 2019 at 2:19 pm
AB left 30,000,000 guaranteed on the table
September 7th, 2019 at 2:25 pm
Get well soon, sick Bucs players. If not, it’s next man up, the same with injuries. There will be no Smith “ran” defense, Lovie or Mike. Thank God!!
September 7th, 2019 at 2:30 pm
Altered. No he didnt. The Raiders voided the guarantees in his contract.
September 7th, 2019 at 2:40 pm
Our Bucs are Snakebit. The one game we thought was a sure thing just keeps getting more difficult. I think its true fellow Buc fans. We are stuck in the perpetual…BUCLIFE baby.
September 7th, 2019 at 2:41 pm
Without “probable” as an option on the injury report, these cases have to be placed as questionable. He will play
September 7th, 2019 at 2:53 pm
AB perfect for the Pats and doesn’t cost them a pick
September 7th, 2019 at 2:58 pm
Just checked White’s Instagram Stories page. He just posted a couple of videos. Either he isn’t too terribly sick or the music he listens to is a magical elixir.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:03 pm
Excuses starting early and often. Get out there and play you pansy arse. You make more in one afternoon than most of us make in a year! Earn your dough!

Would someone please explain to AwSh… how AB walked away from 30 million guaranteed
September 7th, 2019 at 3:54 pm
Just catching up on NFL and my Bucs… White as last minute add to Injury Report made me feel Bucs are going to be snake-bitten once again this year… and THEN latest act in The Opera of AB hits the stage. Oh my… my Bucs are all good. AB? Not so much. #LookAway
September 7th, 2019 at 4:26 pm
Excited for game number one will be at Raymond James tomorrow go BUCS!
September 7th, 2019 at 4:33 pm
i would love to see AB on the seahawks.
or the titans.
not gonna lie. he would fit carolina. cam and CMC running wild with ab deep? NASTY. really hoping he ends up on the titans lol.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:38 pm
In between Instagram posts Devin should google Wally Pipp.
1st baseman Pipp called in sick one day for the the Yankees. His replacement Lou Gehrig didn’t miss a start for 2,130 games.

Antibiotics have no affect on viruses. They are for fighting bacterial infections.
Want to avoid spreading viruses, wash your hands and wear a breathing mask.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:53 pm
Funny ghost. Because we have so much talent at backup linebacker.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:59 pm
I’m going with AB going to the Texans…. all that extra money they could throw out there and no GM….. Billy might try something else crazy.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:03 pm
I sure hope White is at full strength come Sunday. I really want to see if he was being held back and working on getting people in the right spot and ready to go full speed come Sunday.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:09 pm
Antonia Brown signed with the Patriots. just wow.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:09 pm
In other news…the Pats just signed A Brown…..what a surprise!!! Not!!!!
September 7th, 2019 at 5:13 pm
I’d like to see AB suspended indefinitely for insubordination. His behavior should be unacceptable. He is a cancer, and I hope whatever team stoops low to sign him regrets the day they took advantage of this and he completely blows up their team.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:15 pm
and of course the Hatriots take advantage. AB actually got rewarded for being a total @ss
September 7th, 2019 at 5:17 pm
Remember about a year ago when tmaxcon was suspended and we had more than a month of peace? Man, I miss those days.
My birthday is this week, I know what I want, Joe!!!!
September 7th, 2019 at 5:19 pm
Bummer about this illness bug. Doesn’t really matter what it is so long as it goes away quickly.
I bet White toughs it out if he isn’t over it.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:26 pm
Would be hilarious if the NFL handed down a season suspension on Brown. Personal conduct policy.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:30 pm
ab comes out smelling like roses and escaped the Oakland dumpster fire. hopefully evans and winston can escape the bucs dumpster fire sooner than later. they both deserve much better than the pathetic glazers can provide.

Or they were videos from before he got sick.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:36 pm
Gee what poster said three hours ago he’d sign with the Pats.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:37 pm
Oh yeah that was me
September 7th, 2019 at 5:58 pm
Joe,
Please post something… AB has hijacked this thread!

Trevor Lawrence sure throws an accurate ball… just saying

What flu is going around? It’s September and it’s 95 degrees – hardly the flu season.
September 7th, 2019 at 7:00 pm
stomach flus happen year round…
September 7th, 2019 at 7:12 pm
Man, if he doesn’t play that would be such a whimp and flaccid start for the 5th overall pick. It’s a Bucs life! Man up for 3 hrs and get an IV!
September 7th, 2019 at 8:08 pm
I am surprized that nobody blamed Licht for this.
At least glad to hear it’s a 24 hr thing. That means Evans should be fine. Also sounds like White will be good with a solid night’s rest.
The Scarry part is worring who wakes up puking tomorrow. Not looking forward to finding that part out.

The Patriots picked up AB for half the price the Raiders dealt for him. He will be able to play in 15 games. I’m sure the Patriots coaches/management are laughing their butts off.
As a football fan I think AB is is a prima donna and a piece of human feces. He got away with a weird form of extortion.
I would hate to see a guy like him brought here, ever!
September 8th, 2019 at 1:05 am
Tmax…now you’re just stretching the neg…..for replies.
lol You do you….
Btw…
Go Bucs!
