Buccaneers cornerback Jacob Parrish sustained a back sprain during Tampa Bay's 33-27 loss to the Bengals last Sunday, cbssports.com reported.
Parrish underwent an MRI and an X-ray, and neither exam showed a major spinal injury. His return will depend on how well he handles the pain while playing.
The 22-year-old's availability for next Sunday's game against the Browns is expected to become clearer through his participation in Tampa Bay's Wednesday, Thursday and Friday practices. Further details were not provided.
