A decision is coming today on the appeal of Bucs safety Dashon Goldson’s suspension. The Buccaneers are waiting for it, and they’re ready to get him to practice -- if the decision arrives in time.

Per a team spokesman, practice will start at 11:55 a.m. ET.

It’s unknown whether the decision will be issued before the time practice starts. If the suspension is going to be overturned, it’s only fair for Goldson to be able to attend the first major practice of the week, as the Bucs prepare to take on the 2-0 Patriots.
