The Facts: According to Times staffer Rick Stroud, the Bucs are fearful Shorts may have torn all the ligaments in his right knee and dislocated it when hit by Chargers S Jahleel Addae.

Diehards Line: Sounds like more than a season-ending issue -- but it's certainly that. With Adam Humphries concussed the Bucs were down to three wideouts by the end of today's game. Expect them to make moves in coming days.
