Schiano said it was not the knee, which is encouraging.

Blount was carted off the field in the first half of the Buccaneers' game against the Tennessee Titans. It looked like a more serious injury at the time. He was back on the sidelines with his teammates in the second half, not wearing any kind of brace or icing his leg.
The Buccaneers have a position battle between Blount and rookie Doug Martin to determine who will be the starting running back.
