The Tampa Bay Bucs are set to prepare for Sunday's opponent, an opponent with a familiar face.
Tampa Bay hosts the Chicgao Bears Sunday at Raymond James Stadium. The Bears quarterback is one the Bucs know quite well, former backup Mike Glennon.
After a dismal preseason, Glennon nearly led the Bears to a come-from-behind win over Super Bowl runner-ups Atlanta. He went 26-for-40 for 213 yards and one touchdown.
The Bears were supposed to be Tampa Bay's second opponent of the season, but Hurricane Irma postponed their Week 1 game against Miami.
Sports Illustrated's Peter King reported Tampa Bay head coach Dirk Koetter rode out the storm at One Buc Place. When asked whether he was watching the Sunday night game between the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys or the Weather Channel, Koetter said both.
The Miami Dolphins moved their operations to the West Coast in preparation for their Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. King said more than 130 Bucs players and staffers flew to Charlotte to get away from the storm.
Depending on conditions after Hurricane Irma, the Bucs might have to prepare for the Bears in New Orleans or West Virginia.
The Jacksonville Jaguars were the only Florida NFL team to get a game in on Sunday. They upset the Houston Texans 29-7.
