Buccaneers' Anthony Nelson: Doesn't practice Thursday

Nelson (illness) did not practice Thursday.

Nelson popped up on Thursday's injury report with an illness, leaving his status for Sunday's road game against the Bills in question. Due to the absence of Haason Reddick (ankle/knee), the outside linebacker played 92 percent of defensive snaps in last week's loss to the Patriots and made use of the increased opportunity by logging six tackles (three solo). Nelson's participation level in Friday's practice should provide a much more concrete indication of his chances of suiting up for Sunday's Week 11 matchup against the Bills.
