Buccaneers Downgrade Cade Otton to 'OUT' vs Dallas

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have downgraded the status of tight end Cade Otton to “OUT” for today’s game against the Dallas Cowboys due to a knee injury. Otton was initially listed as questionable after missing two practices and participating in a limited capacity on Friday.

This is a significant blow to the Buccaneers’ offense, as Otton has been a key contributor this season with 59 catches for 600 yards and four touchdowns.

The Pewter Pirates will now have to lean on tight ends Payne Durham, Ko Kieft and Devin Culp.

The Buccaneers also announced they have activated punter Jack Browning from the practice squad. This is his final elevation of the season.
