  • Buccaneers' William Gholston: Tallies career-high 11 tackles in Week 15 loss

    Gholston managed 11 tackles (seven solo), including two for loss, in Thursday's 31-23 loss to the Rams. Gholston has been progressively coming on over the second half of the season. The third-year pro has now tallied 37 tackles, three sacks, a forced fumble and a pass defensed over the last seven games alone, and the 11 tackles he managed Thursday was easily a career-high figure.
