Patriots RB Sammy Morris is out of the International Series game against the Buccaneers because of a knee injury, so Laurence Maroney is expected to start.
The Patriots also will be without OT Matt Light (knee) and WR Julian Edelman (arm), but the team activated OT Mark LeVoir and WR Brandon Tate to address depth at both positions.
Bucs KR Clifton Smith is out after he suffered a concussion last week on a hit by the Panthers’ Dante Wesley.
