Yaya Diaby Could Miss Season Opener

Yaya Diaby Could Miss Season Opener

3 months ago

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Yaya Diaby (ankle) appears to be in danger of missing the beginning of the regular season. The young linebacker was carted off the field during Thursday's practice. It's not season-ending, but Diaby is expected to miss four-to-six weeks of action due to a high-ankle sprain. The Bucs aren't going to rush Diaby especially with a significant injury such as this one. Diaby recorded 7.5 sacks as a rookie with Tampa Bay last season. The Bucs defense will certainly take a hit if Diaby is unavailable to start the season.
