Bucs receiver Antonio Bryant says his teammates are still fighting to win, but it doesn't look like he'll help them fight Sunday against the Packers.
FoxSports reports that Bryant will be out, and Brian Clark will start in his place. Bryant was considered a game-time decision, and his official status will be announced with the pregame inactives.
Rookie quarterback Josh Freeman will have his work cut out for him if Bryant is out in his first NFL starter; fellow starting wideout Michael Clayton is also operating at less than full strength. Tampa Bay is trying to end an 11-game losing streak Sunday.

Aside from Sammy Stroughter (who inexplicably is not starting) we have the worst receiving corps in the NFL and beyond.
Who is Brian Clark???????
This reminds me of the Bernard Berrian scoop last week...the one that cost me a FFL game.
Agreed Stroughter has been a bright spot, but I think he's listed on the depth chart behind Michael Clayton, while Clark plays behind Bryant. Stroughter does need to get on the field more though.
