Josh Freeman acknowledged Sunday evening that he played through discomfort in his injured throwing shoulder during the Bucs' Week 14 loss to Jacksonville. Freeman said he especially felt the pain during stoppages, such as timeouts and defensive series when the adrenaline wore off. "Obviously, he didn't play well," coach Raheem Morris said afterwards. "But you put him out there. You've got to play him. He was healthy. We make no excuses about it. He took a couple (hits) and was able to get back up."
