Buccaneers Insider Rick Stroud spoke with NFL analyst Rich Eisen on The Rich Eisen Show and spoke about the Bucs’ current situation regarding the hurricane.
Stroud said:
Stroud added that the team is currently training in Miami at the Dolphins facility and practicing there while they’ve evacuated Tampa. He also said that the team is still hopeful of playing Sunday Night’s game at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay.
He added:
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers could host the Chiefs at U.S. Bank Stadium if they can’t play in Tampa
While it sounds like the Buccaneers are optimistic about the game being held in Tampa on Sunday night, there’s a realistic chance that they will be forced to play elsewhere due to the aftermath of Hurricane Ian.
One possible location that the league is targeting is U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which is home to the Vikings. The Vikings will be away in London, facing the New Orleans Saints at 9:30 AM ET, and will have their stadium free to use.
No changes have been made as of now, but if they are made, the game will be played in Minneapolis.
