Darrelle Revis sustained a groin injury in last week’s game against the Detroit Lions. Earlier in the week, Revis was listed as day-to-day, but now he has been moved to questionable. From ESPN,

"“It’ll probably be a game-time decision,’’ Revis said. “I’ll probably have to get out there a little earlier and try to run and see how I feel when I’m cutting and how I move.’’Revis practiced for the first time this week Friday, but did so on a limited basis.“Darrelle was limited as far as tempo and those kind of things,’’ coach Greg Schiano said. “Since he’s been out the previous two days, that’s a step in the right direction. We’ll see come Sunday.’’"

The Buccaneers will play the streaking Carolina Panthers on Sunday, so if Revis is able to suit up and play, he’ll likely be covering Steve Smith for most of the game. Speaking of Smith, Revis talked about him with ESPN.

"“They have a great passing attack,’’ Revis said. “We feel that he’s the key guy. He gets them going. He has a lot of emotion after catches sometimes. We want to take that away from him.’’"
