The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will need all the help they can get this weekend, as the surging NFC South franchise is currently gearing up to take on the top-seeded Green Bay Packers.
With the Buccaneers and Packers slated to duke it out in this year's NFC Championship Game, it remains to be seen as to whether Tampa Bay wide receiver Antonio Brown ultimately takes the field in Green Bay. The veteran pass-catcher continues to deal with a lingering knee injury.
According to Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians, Brown is slated to undergo an MRI on his injured knee, which could give the team a better idea of how likely he is to play against the always-dangerous Packers, per Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk.
The 32-year-old Antonio Brown only played 29 snaps this past weekend against the rival New Orleans Saints, as the tandem of Tyler Johnson and Scotty Miller filled in nicely alongside Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. In addition to this quartet of wideouts, the Buccaners also have the tight end duo of Rob Gronkowski and Cameron Brate at the team's disposal in the event that Brown can't suit up against the Packers.
Brown went on to catch only one pass for a mere 10 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-20 victory over the Saints.
