Grimes does not intend to retire this offseason, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes continues to test the waters of free agency after three seasons in Tampa Bay. The 35-year-old made 48 tackles, one forced fumble and six defended passes across 13 games in 2018, failing to record an interception for the first time since 2012, when he suited up for only one game. Though the four-time Pro Bowler intends to suit up for a 13th NFL season, it remains to be seen whether any teams are interested in bringing him in as a starter.

Grimes, who was credited with five solo tackles and three passes defensed in a Week 17 loss to the Falcons, finished the 2018 season with 48 tackles (42 solo), one forced fumble and six pass break-ups across 13 games.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes was as active as ever in the tackle department, and he's now managed no fewer than 48 stops in the last nine seasons in which he's played at least 12 games. However, the veteran also failed to record an interception for the first time in a season in which he suited up for at least that many contests, as Grimes had only logged a combined three appearances in the other two campaigns (2007 and 2012) in which he'd failed to nab at least one pick. Moreover, the 35-year-old's six defensed passes qualified as his lowest figure since 2008. Grimes played 2018 on a one-year, $7 million contract, and he could therefore well be on the move this offseason, especially with a new coaching staff imminent.

Grimes totaled four tackles (three solo) in the Buccaneers' 28-14 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes made his return from a one-game absence due to a knee injury and turned in a solid performance, although he was part of a secondary that allowed 11 receptions to Michael Thomas. The veteran corner has no fewer than three and as many as six stops in every game he's played this season, but he's uncharacteristically yet to record an interception and has been credited with just three defensed passes despite seeing plenty of action his way. He'll look to get his hands on a ball from the still developing Lamar Jackson in a Week 15 tilt against the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran corner will thus make his return after a one-game absence. Grimes will look to help a Buccaneers secondary that picked off Cam Newton four times in Week 13 turn in another stellar effort versus the formidable challenge of Drew Brees and company.

Grimes (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes was a full participant in practice all week, and is trending towards suiting up Week 14. If he's able to take the field against the Saints on Sunday, expect Grimes to play his usual starting role.

Grimes (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes sat out last week's win over the Panthers due to a knee issue, but now appears to have gotten fully healthy. Barring any setbacks, expect the starting cornerback to suit up against the Saints on Sunday.

Grimes (knee) is inactive for Sunday's Week 13 tilt against the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes' inactive status comes on the heels of the late-week deterioration of his health. The veteran corner regressed from full participant Wednesday all the way to non-participant Friday, and he's now officially set to miss his first game since Week 2 and third overall this season. With Grimes, Carlton Davis (knee) and M.J. Stewart (foot) all in street clothes Sunday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports that Ryan Smith and De'Vante Harris will be the Buccaneers' starting corners against the Panthers.

Grimes has a knee injury and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant and didn't practice Friday, so his availability for this weekend appears to be in doubt. With Carlton Davis (knee) and M.J. Stewart (foot) already ruled out and Justin Evans (toe) also questionable, the Buccaneers could be dangerously thin in the secondary Sunday.

Grimes tallied five tackles (three solo) and one pass defensed in the Buccaneers' 37-34 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran corner actually checked in third on the team in tackles behind only Justin Evans and Lavonte David. However, he was also an integral component of a secondary that once again allowed a productive passing day to the opposition, which included a pair of touchdowns passes. Grimes is providing solid IDP production for a cornerback with 23 tackles in five games, but he's yet to snag an interception and has a meager two passes defensed to his credit.

Grimes (groin) totaled six tackles (all solo) in the Buccaneers' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.

EDGE Analysis

Grimes finally took the field for his 2018 season debut after being sidelined for the first pair of contests due to a groin injury. The veteran corner was victimized on a quick pass to Antonio Brown in the second quarter, as he missed a tackle on the speedy receiver helping lead to a 27-yard touchdown. However, just as important was the fact that Grimes was apparently back at full speed, considering his heightened level of importance to the secondary now that Vernon Hargreaves (shoulder) is on injured reserve. Grimes will look to continue working back into shape against a less intimidating Bears passing game in Week 4.
