Tampa, FL (My Sportsbook) - Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Ronde Barber practiced Wednesday despite a fractured left thumb and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Green Bay. Barber was injured in the fourth quarter of Tampa Bay's 23-10 win over Carolina this past Sunday and underwent surgery on Monday. "He practiced with a cast on his hand and we're still going to list him as questionable," said Bucs head coach Jon Gruden. "We'll see how the next couple of days go. But, again, if there is anybody that could play with a broken thumb in a cast at corner, it would be Ronde Barber." Barber has no doubts that he will be on the field against the Packers in a battle of the NFC's top teams. Both teams enter the contest at 8-2. "For me, it's not an issue," Barber said. "The doctor addressed the injury and surgery went well. I am playing, and for me it's business as usual. Practice went well -- it was a good productive practice for me today." |
