Inactives

Todd Wade is out, unable to play with the knee strain, so un-drafted rookie Stephon Heyer gets his first NFL start at right tackle. Heyer has very sick with the stomach flu this week and lost a lot of weight, though he did practice Friday.

FS Sean Taylor, WR James Thrash, RG Randy Thomas and FB MIke Sellers are all out with injuries. CB David Macklin is also incvtive.

Reed Doughty again starts for Taylor at safety.

For the Bucs, former Skin LB Jeremiah Trotter is inactive, as is starting D ends Greg Spires. Rookie Gaines Adams will start in his place.
