It looked like Bucs running back LeGarrette Blount suffered an injury during Sunday’s win over the Panthers. After the game, however, the team said no injury occurred.

On Monday’s NBC SportsTalk, however, Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano implied that Blount was injured, in some way.

“I think he’s OK,” Schiano told host Erik Kuselias. “We just got done here with a couple of things and I was visiting with him. He seems OK. I think what will happen is we’ll just keep an eye on him and make sure he’s OK. Tomorrow’s our day off and I’m hoping Wednesday he comes in and he’s ready to go.”

Though Blount eventually grabbed his leg once he landed on the ground, he seemed woozy before taking a seat on the grass at Raymond James Stadium.

Regardless, it sound like Blount suffered an injury. It’s just not known what it was, and when he’ll be back.
