Sims totaled 17 yards on four rushes and secured three of four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 16-11 win over the Saints.
Sims looked quick, powerful and decisive in his first game since injuring his knee in Week 4. The third-year back was decidedly behind Doug Martin in touches, but notbaly outpaced backfield mate Jacquizz Rodgers, who received only two carries and did not see any targets. Overall. Sims filled a very familiar role behind Martin, and is probably due for a slight uptick in snaps in the Week 15 tilt against the Cowboys now that he's proven a return to full health. However, it remains to be seen if Rodgers' very modest role Sunday will be the norm going forward, or if he too will see additional opportunities as the Bucs continue their playoff push.
