HOUSTON — Tampa Bay Buccaneers starting cornerback Jamel Dean suffered a concussion in the first quarter of Sunday’s 39-37 loss to the Houston Texans.
Dean was covering Texans wide receiver Nico Collins on a slant route when he dove to tackle Collins and missed his feet; Dean’s upper body hit the turf hard while Collins ran into the end zone for a 14-yard touchdown.
Dean was helped off the field by the training staff before being ruled out.
Galveston native Zyon McCollum, a fifth-round draft pick out of Sam Houston State in 2022, has three starts this season stepping in for Dean (Week 4) and the Bucs’ other starting cornerback, Carlton Davis (Weeks 2-3). Davis was recovering from a foot injury and Dean a neck/shoulder injury during those games.
