From the Associated Press

TAMPA, Fla. -- Matt Bryant’s 43-yard field goal with 11 seconds remaining gave the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a 13-10 victory over the Tennessee Titans.

Tennessee quarterback Vince Young, 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. Garcia then led the Buccaneers (4-2) on the winning drive after the Titans (3-2) tied the score on LenDale White’s two-yard run with 1 minute 17 seconds left.

Garcia, 37, a three-time Pro Bowl selection who was signed as a free agent in March, completed 20 of 31 passes for 274 yards. He used completions of 14 yards to Galloway and 28 and 10 yards to Ike Hilliard to move the Buccaneers into position for the winning field goal.

Young was injured when he scrambled and was pushed out of bounds by tackle Jovan Haye midway through the third quarter. The Titans said Young had a quadriceps strain. He was replaced by Kerry Collins.

Quoteworthy: “I can’t even tell you how valuable he is.” -- Jon Gruden, Buccaneers coach, on Jeff Garcia
