TAMPA, Fla., Sept. 13 (UPI) -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Joey Galloway could be sidelined up to six weeks with a groin injury, the team announced Monday.
Galloway, 32, was hurt in the second quarter of Tampa Bay's 16-10 defeat by the Washington Redskins Sunday.
A report from the Buccaneers said Galloway would be out four to six weeks.
"It's very disappointing, obviously, that the injury looks to be a little more serious than we had expected," Coach Jon Gruden said.
"It was a big loss for our team yesterday. Hopefully, he makes a quick recovery, because we need him. There will be no surgery, from what I understand, but he will be basically off his feet for two weeks, then continue his rehab."
Galloway was acquired from Dallas in March in exchange for wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson.
