Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Bryant could miss the remainder of the season with a knee injury.
Bryant missed last Sunday's game against Green Bay with the injury.
His painful right knee dates back to the preseason, when he had arthroscopic surgery.
"This is not a selfish act by A.B. by any means," coach Rasheem Morris said.
"Don't take it that way. ... This is a team decision. This is A.B. sitting in my office on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and figuring out where we are. ... We don't have a problem with A.B. pulling himself out or anything like that."
