Tampa Bay Buccaneers LB Kwon Alexander (hamstring) did not practice for a third straight day Friday, Sept. 29, and has been ruled out for Week 4 versus the New York Giants. LB Lavonte David (ankle) and SS T.J. Ward (hip) also have not practiced all week and are listed as doubtful. DE Robert Ayers (knee), CB Brent Grimes (shoulder), DT Gerald McCoy (ankle), DE Noah Spence (shoulder) and OG J.R. Sweezy (back) all participated fully in practice Friday and are listed as questionable.

Footballguys View: The Buccaneers defense is going to be missing multiple key defensive players and have multiple defenders limited at best. Eli Manning and the Giants passing game should have success again this week.
