The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have announced that this week's preseason finale against Washington has been moved up to Wednesday due to the threat of severe weather.

The game was scheduled to be played on Thursday, but Tropical Depression Nine could have been a factor.

"This decision was made by both teams in conjunction with the National Football League and local authorities in an effort to ensure the safety of our fans, players and stadium staff," the Buccaneers said in a statement.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie kicker Roberto Aguayo struggled during Tuesday's joint practice with the Cleveland Browns, going 3-for-6 on field goal attempts.

Fans booed him loudly amid the struggles.

"He's struggling," Dirk Koetter said. "He's struggling a little bit right now. He's gotta work his way through it."

Aguayo missed an attempt from 35 yards and twice from 45 yards out. In two preseason games, he has missed two field goals and an extra point. During his entire time at FSU, he was 198-for-198 on extra points and only missed nine field goals in three years.

"We've talked to him. He knows what he has to do. He's working through it," said Koetter, directing all questions about possibly bringing in another kicker to general manager Jason Licht. "I wouldn't think that's an option, but that would be a question for Jason."
