Buccaneers vs Falcons: Week 2 inactives

We knew heading into this game that the Buccaneers would be without starting cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting, who was placed in injured reserve due to the elbow injury he suffered in week one against the Cowboys. With Carlton Davis nursing a hamstring problem and Murphy-Bunting out for an unknown amount of time, reports surfaced Sunday morning about the Bucs reaching out to free agent cornerback Richard Sherman to come help fill the void.

However, the Bucs wanted to take the “wait and see” approach when it came to how the secondary played against the Atlanta Falcons before talks became more serious.

That said, the Bucs are looking to their depth at corner today to help stop a potentially potent Falcons’ offense who will be without wide receiver Frank Darby.

Here is the full list of inactive players for the Bucs and Falcons ahead of the first of two meetings between the NFC South rivals this season;
