Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians spoke with the media Saturday after practice. After stating wide receiver Antonio Brown is officially ruled out he went on to update us on cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting.
#Bucs coach Bruce Arians says Sean Murphy-Bunting has shown he's ready to play and come of IR. "We can't overload him,'' Arians said. Scotty Miller coming off IR would be a matter of need. They have Breshad Perriman another week as well.

Murphy-Bunting’s return is a huge boost for a depleted Buccaneers secondary. The question is how much can Murphy-Bunting play and how effective will he be?
More from Arians on Murphy-Bunting: "Getting him back's one thing, but playing 60 plays is another. … Sean's been out a long time, so we can't overload him." #Bucs

As Arians stated, you don’t want to overload him as he’s been out for a long time. Look for Murphy-Bunting to be in for roughly 40 plays at the most Monday.
