Buccaneers QB Jameis Winston has 'slight crack' in right thumb

[Jameis Winston played] with a “slight crack” in his right thumb.

Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians revealed the X-ray results after the game.

The team’s starting quarterback was having trouble gripping the ball out of halftime, and the Bucs sent him back in for X-rays. That’s why Ryan Griffin opened the second half.
