    A third Tampa Bay Buccaneers player has been diagnosed with an MRSA infection, and the team brought in an infectious disease specialist to address concerns Friday.

    Dr. Deverick J. Anderson, co-director of Duke Infection Control Outreach Network, met with players as the start of practice was delayed about 90 minutes. After that, Anderson met with staff members.

    Anderson said the Buccaneers, who host the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, have handled the situation as well as possible.
