Buccaneers Place RB Earnest Graham On Injured Reserve


Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Earnest Graham has been placed on injured reserve.

Graham tore his Achilles during Sunday's 24-18 loss to the Chicago Bears at Wembley Stadium in London. Graham was starting a second straight game in place of an injured LeGarrette Blount. Graham had 37 carries for 206 yards and 26 receptions for 163 yards this season, his highest production since 2008, when he had 737 yards from scrimmage as a 10-game starter.

The 31-year-old is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent in 2012.

Tampa Bay has also placed long-snapper Christian Yount on waivers, freeing up a roster spot for veteran Andrew Economos, who is eligible to come off the non-football injury list.

The Buccaneers are on their bye week.
