Titans fall to Bucs 13-10 on last-second Bryant field goal
Titans quarterback Young leaves game with leg injury
 
 

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- Tennessee lost Vince Young, then watched the game slip away, too.

Matt Bryant's 43-yard field goal with 11 seconds remaining Sunday gave the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a 13-10 victory over the Titans. Tennessee had a five-game road winning streak halted after the 2006 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year limped off in the third quarter.

Jeff Garcia threw a 69-yard touchdown pass to Joey Galloway less than five minutes after Young left the game. Garcia then led the Bucs (4-2) on the winning drive after the Titans (3-2) tied the score on LenDale White's 2-yard run with 1:17 left.

Tampa Bay, which rebounded from a lopsided loss to Super Bowl champion Indianapolis, has already matched last season's victory total. The main reason is Garcia, the 37-year-old quarterback signed as a free agent in March.

The three-time Pro Bowl selection completed 20 of 31 passes for 274 yards and has not thrown an interception this season. He used completions of 14 yards to Galloway and 28 and 10 yards to Ike Hilliard to move the Bucs into position for the winning field goal.

Young was injured when he scrambled for a 2-yard gain and was pushed out of bounds by defensive tackle Jovan Haye midway through the third quarter.

Titans quarterback Young leaves game with leg injury

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- Tennessee quarterback Vince Young left Sunday's game against Tampa Bay with a leg injury after scrambling for a 2-yard gain and being pushed out of bounds midway through the third quarter.

Young began limping just as defensive tackle Jovan Haye gave him a shove as last year's NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year crossed the sideline. Young stumbled forward before falling to the ground.

He remained on the ground for a couple of minutes before being helped to his feet and remaining on the sideline. He was replaced by Kerry Collins and soon after headed into the locker room.

The Titans said he had a quadriceps injury and that his return to the game was probable.
