The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed outside linebacker Shaq Barrett on the NFL’s Reserve/COVID-19 list.
Barrett was already expected to miss Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Carolina Panthers due to a knee injury, but being placed on the COVID-19 list will ensure that he won’t return until the playoffs.
Look for rookie first-round pick Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and reserve Anthony Nelson to get plenty of work again this week with Barrett out.
