Right elbow - Missed Week 6 vs. Carolina
(Updated - 10/12/08)

Fantasy Analysis

Garcia is not guaranteed another start next week vs. Seattle, but with Griese unable to practice all week leading up to this game, neither is he. Monitor that situation through the week, but neither quarterback is recommended as anything more than a low-end bye week replacement.
(Updated 10/12/2008).

QB Brian Griese has an elbow bruise and right shoulder strain. He is expected to be questionable for Sunday?s game against the Panthers. 10/07/2008

Jeff Garcia started at quarterback for Tampa Bay against Carolina on Sunday, replacing Griese, who sat out with a sore elbow and shoulder that prevented him from throwing in practice.

Advice

Griese was injured during the Buccaneers' 16-13 loss at Denver last week. Garcia led Tampa Bay to the playoffs in 2007, but lost the starting job after playing poorly in this year's opener.
