Shaquil Barrett News
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers activated outside linebacker Shaq Barrett (knee) from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday and placed cornerback Richard Sherman (leg) on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. The Bucs will hope to have Barrett, their sack leader with 10, back for the wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday. Meanwhile, Sherman will miss the rest of the year after missing all but two of the team's last 11 games. He'll finish with 11 tackles, one interception and a fumble recovery. Barrett led the league with a team-record 19.5 sacks in 2019 and had four sacks in the NFC Championship game and Super Bowl combined, so getting him back for the playoffs is excellent news for Tampa's defense.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that pass-rusher Shaq Barrett (knee) has a sprained MCL and ACL and will miss the next two games, but the team is hoping that he'll be back for the playoffs. Combined with the injury to Lavonte David, the Tampa defense will be missing two of their star linebackers for the remainder of the regular season. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues will also be without Barrett and David the rest of the way. Barrett, a Pro Bowler for the second time in his career in 2021, will finish the 2021 regular season with 51 tackles (37 solo), nine tackles for loss, 22 QB hits, one interception, four passes defensed, three forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and 10 sacks in 15 games.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Shaquil Barrett (knee) is believed to have sustained an MCL sprain during Sunday's win over the Panthers. However, he isn't out of the woods just yet, as the veteran will undergo further testing on Monday to determine the severity of the issue. Barrett currently leads the team with nine sacks while adding 47 tackles, so a potential absence could impact the fantasy managers utilizing the Tampa defense during the Week 17 outing against the New York Jets. More on his status moving ahead will likely come within the next day or two.
