TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have officially ruled out only one player -- receiver Cecil Shorts III -- for Monday nights matchup against the Carolina Panthers, but the teams injury situation is looking rather grim.Pro Bowl defensive tackle Gerald McCoy, Pro Bowl running back Doug Martin and Martins replacement, Charles Sims, were all listed as doubtful on the Bucs final injury report Saturday. All three did not practice this week and, barring a miraculous recovery, arent expected to play.Injuries are a rough part of this game, coach Dirk Koetter said Saturday. Theyre no fun, especially for the players. The rules are the rules. Theyre the same for everybody and were gonna be ready. The guys that we put out there, theyre gonna play their tails off.McCoy suffered a calf injury during the first half of the Bucs 27-7 loss to the Denver Broncos last week, while Sims suffered a knee injury. Martin has missed the past two weeks with a hamstring injury, as has defensive end Robert Ayers, who had 9.5 sacks last season. Ayers is also officially listed as doubtful.To make matters worse, starting nose tackle Clinton McDonald, who replaced McCoy against the Broncos at 3-technique last week, sat out practices Friday and Saturday with a hamstring injury and is officially listed as doubtful. He suffered cramps in Sundays game, and was a limited participant in Thursdays padded practice.Rookie defensive end Noah Spence, who suffered a dislocated and partially torn labrum in his shoulder against the Broncos, is listed as questionable. The 2015 second-round draft pick missed Tuesday, Thursday and Friday practices this week before testing out the shoulder Saturday. He was lined up doing special teams work during the 30-minute portion of practice that was open to the media.Koetter believes it being a Monday game may help some players return.More than anything, some extra recuperation time -- in essence, we did play like a Sunday night game because we got done so late -- so the extra day for our banged-up guys is what helps the most, Koetter said.If McCoy, McDonald and Spence cant play Monday, that would leave William Gholston as the only regular starting defensive lineman. To account for those potential losses, the team added former New England Patriots and Cleveland Browns defensive tackle John Hughes this week.At running back, Jacquizz Rodgers, who signed with the team after the first week of the season, is expected to start, and Koetter is confident he can carry the load.Extremely, said Koetter, who worked with Rodgers for three seasons in Atlanta. Ive seen him do it.. Jacquizz will have no problems. Hell do fine.Rodgers is confident he can come through too, even if he has started only five games in six seasons.Every running back should feel that way, Rodgers said. If you practice like that No. 1 guy, and when youre opportunity comes, youll just be ready.

Hawthorn expect to welcome back injured duo Cyril Rioli and Paul Puopolo for their round 20 clash with Melbourne.The pair missed Saturdays 19-point win over Carlton at Launceston where the reigning premiers relied on less experienced players in trying conditions.After a slow first half the Hawks found some urgency and came home winners 10.14 (74) to 7.13 (55).The side could have done with ever-reliable Rioli in the forward line.He was a late scratching ahead of the game with quadriceps tightness and coach Alastair Clarkson said hes not taking any risks on star players.He flew down (to Launceston), we thought he was going to be okay ... but he just didnt feeel right and theres no point in taking the risk - weve put ourselves in a good position where we dont have to take punts on our players.ddddddddddddPuopolo was still recovering from a hip complaint.We should have Rioli and Puopolo back in the side next week, the coach said.Riolis sudden absence made way for Blake Hardwicks debut and the youngster pleased Clarkson.Its great for these young players to come into a winning culture. Its a good way for them to learn their craft, he said.The Hawks meet Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday. ' ' '
