  Donovan Smith Won't Play In Week 2

  Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) has been ruled out for the Week 2 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. This Bucs o-line continues to lose starters, which could impact their offensive success. Luckily, Tristan Wirfs (abdomen) is expected to play despite dealing with an injury. Josh Wells is expected to fill in for Smith for this Sunday's contest. He allowed two pressures on 19 pass-blocking reps last season. The Bucs will likely lean on the running game with their wide receivers banged up. Leonard Fournette could be in for a big game, assuming this o-line can hold up.

  Donovan Smith Suffers Hyperextended Elbow

  Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) suffered a hyperextended elbow in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. It will be a pain-tolerance issue as to how quickly he'll be able to return, according to head coach Todd Bowles. The good news is that the Buccaneers and quarterback Tom Brady might not have to be without the 29-year-old left tackle for too long, if at all. Josh Wells replaced Smith at left tackle on Sunday night and would likely start any games that Smith misses. In a divisional matchup on the road against the New Orleans Saints in Week 2, Brady could face quite a bit of pressure from his blind side if Wells is forced to make the start.

  Donovan Smith Ruled Out On Sunday Night

  Updating a previous report, Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) has been ruled out for the rest of the Sunday night game in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys with an elbow injury. Smith was injured in the second quarter of the game when he allowed a sack of quarterback Tom Brady. It remains to be seen how serious the injury is, but this is more bad news for an already banged up Buccaneers offensive line. Josh Wells replaced Smith at left tackle, so this is a downgrade on Brady's blind side for the rest of this contest and moving forward if Smith is unable to go in Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints on the road.

  Donovan Smith Questionable To Return With Elbow Injury

  Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) exited the team's Week 1 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in the first half. His return is currently questionable. Anything significant would be a tough blow to the Bucs' offensive line which is already struggling with injuries. Tampa Bay holds a 12-3 lead at halftime and will hope to get their starting lineman back for the second half.
