The Buccaneers are optimistic about running back Doug Martin, who suffered a torn labrum Week 7, returning this season, according to NFL.com. Martin is expected to spend the next 18 days strengthening his shoulder and will wear a harness.
The Bucs have a target date of Martin playing Week 10 (Nov. 11) vs. Miami. However, if Martin has a setback, then the Bucs will shut him down for the rest of the season.
