Jamel Dean

Bucs S Jamel Dean (knees) will not return in Week 17 against the Panthers.

Dean injured both of his knees in the Bucs’ eventual win over the Panthers and was quickly ruled out. The veteran safety has appeared in 11 games this year and has six pass breakups plus one interception. With Antoine Winfield Jr. also out for this game, the Bucs’ secondary is taking on water as the playoffs approach.
