Buccaneers HC Bruce Arians: Too early to tell if Antonio Brown will play in NFC Championship Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown avoided a major knee injury during Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. However, his status for the NFC Championship Game remains unclear. 

According to ESPN's Jenna Laine, Bucs head coach Bruce Arians said "it's too early to tell" if Brown will play against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. He's listed as day-to-day.

Brown caught one pass for 10 yards against the Saints before exiting. In eight regular-season games, the 32-year-old caught 45 passes for 483 yards and four touchdowns.

Brown has become one of Tom Brady's top targets this season alongside Chris Godwin, Mike Evans and Rob Gronkowski.
