Bucs still waiting on QB Garcia
December 7, 2007
TAMPA, FLORIDA (TICKER) -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jeff Garcia could be a game-time decision Sunday against the Houston Texans.
Garcia missed Sunday's win over New Orleans with a back injury that he suffered the week before against Washington, but he returned to practice this week.
"There's a chance (he will play)," Buccaneers coach Jon Gruden said. "But we're going to, again, wait until we get to Houston, see how the weather is, see how he feels.
"It's a day-to-day operation right now, but he is getting better and I can only make the decision on Sunday when we get to the stadium."
Luke McCown filled in for Garcia against the Saints and was impressive, passing for 313 yards and two touchdowns, including the go-ahead score with 17 seconds left, in a 27-23 victory at New Orleans.
Gruden said Monday that Garcia would start if healthy.
Garcia has thrown for 2,135 yards and 11 touchdowns with three interceptions in 11 games this season.
