The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will travel to Dolphins Stadium tonight to take on the Miami Dolphins at 7:30 pm EST.

For the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, it looks as if offensive linemen Anthony Davis and Matt Stinchcomb will be in the starting lineup after missing the first two preseason games due to injury. Fullback Mike Alstott will also be starting tonight for the Buccaneers after being held out of the first two games with a shoulder stinger. Defensive tackle Anthony McFarland is expected to rejoin Tampa Bay today, though he will not play in tonight's game. McFarland had been away from the team for a little over a week, after the death of his mother.

Miami Dolphins' fans will get to see first round pick Ronnie Brown tonight. He will see his first game action of the preseason. Although Sammy Morris is listed as tonight's starter, Brown should see plenty of action. There is a good possibility that Brown and Ricky Williams will be on the field at the same time tonight. This lineup is what head coach Nick Saban had envisioned when requesting that Williams return to football, and taking Brown with the #2 overall pick. Quarterback Gus Frerotte will get the start tonight and should play for the first half and some of the second.
