Earnest Graham Injury Update: Buccaneers Running Back Has Torn Achilles Tendon, According to Report

By T.J. Doyle

Already without LeGarrette Blount, it would be safe to say the Buccaneers are decimated in the backfield, and most likely will be scouring the league for replacement bodies to play running back in coming weeks.
