Bucs will face Seahawks without safety Goldson

For the second week in a row, the Bucs will play without starting safety Dashon Goldson, who did not travel with the team for Sunday's game at Seattle due to a lingering knee injury.

Goldson had been limited in practice and officially listed as "questionable" for Sunday, and his absence means the Bucs will likely have Keith Tandy starting at safety as they try to avoid going 0-8 with another loss.
