Doug Martin, running back for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has been placed on injured reserve, the team announced Friday.
THIS JUST IN: The Bucs are placing Doug Martin on IR.

Martin missed the last two games after injuring his shoulder while attempting to catch a pass on October 20th.
The Buccaneers wanted to have him back by the end of the season, but now we know that that’s not going to happen.
Rookie Martin James will now be the starting running back for the Buccaneers.
Losing Martin is a huge loss for a team like the Buccaneers, that have almost nothing else.
