Barnes injured his right knee during Thursday's game against the Redskins, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The last time Barnes played was in 2015, when he played 131 snaps over 12 games and posted just five tackles. He's a long shot to make the roster in Tampa Bay, and this injury doesn't help his chances.
