NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers suffered a blow to their surprising run for the playoffs with the loss of guard Davin Joseph and safety Cody Grimm for the rest of season due to injuries, the NFL club said Monday.
Joseph broke his foot and Grimm broke his leg in the Bucs' 17-10 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
Joseph, in his fifth season, started all 11 games this season for the Bucs, who were 3-13 in 2009 but are 7-4 this year.
Grimm, son of Redskins Hall of Famer Russ Grimm, had seen increased playing time after being inserted into the lineup to replace suspended Tanard Jackson in Week 3 and registered 57 tackles and two interceptions in 11 games.
