Vincent, Joseph & More Stay Home
September 2nd, 2010Hammering away on his keyboard, TampaBay.com Bucs specialist Rick Stroud says the Bucs have left home starting offensive linemen Keydrick Vincent and Davin Joseph for tonight’s preseason finale in Houston.
They’re among the ranks of injured Buccaneers.
Guard Davin Joseph (hip flexor), tight end Kellen Winslow (knee, precautionary), guard Keydrick Vincent (ankle), safety Sabby Piscitelli (concussion), and receiver Maurice Stovall (ankle).
Joe’s a bit troubled about new starting left guard Vincent getting his ankle tweeked, assuming it’s not something worse.
All the O-line experts Joe has listened to always talk about the importance of continuity and familiarty on the line. Vincent is the new guy in the unit, and he has spent limited preseason time with the first team.
Plus,the Bucs were stuffed running the ball with him in there at left guard for the first half on Saturday.
Of course, Joe could ramble on about how he thinks Jeremy Zuttah should be in there anyway, but that’s irrelevant now. Joe just hopes Vincent can recover quickly, not always easy for a 10-year veteran.

Joe, are you baiting Jimbuc?

Huggins and Smith are going to struggle tonight without Vincent and Joseph on the Oline.
I hope they throw alot to Benn – he needs reps, reps, and more reps.

I think they left them home because the Glazers could then charter a smaller plane and save $$$$$$$$$$$$!
