 Tampa Bay made three late additions to its roster count. Wide receiver Cecil Shorts, running back Peyton Barber and linebacker Josh Keyes, all added this week, are on the active roster for Sunday's opener against the Atlanta Falcons. 
 
 Shorts, who also played for new Buccaneers coach Dirk Koetter in Jacksonville, was signed following his release last week from the Texans. Shorts' experience was attractive to Tampa Bay, which lacked proven backups to starters Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans.

 Baltimore — The Buffalo Bills left two of their defensive starters behind on the bus ride from the team hotel to M&T; Bank Stadium for their Week 1 game against the Baltimore Ravens. 
 
 Starting linebackers Jerry Hughes and Zach Brown ended up taking an Uber to the stadium after they missed the first team bus. There was a later bus to the stadium for players, but the two wanted to get to the game quicker. Hughes documented the ride on his Instagram page. 
 
 The Bills won't complain as long as Hughes and Brown are in uniform when they kick off against the Ravens on Sunday. Buffalo is short-handed to begin with on defense and couldn't afford to lose two more starters. 
 
 Preview, odds, prediction for Bills' game vs. Ravens
– What to do when your team bus leaves without you? For two members of the Buffalo Bills, Uber provided the answer on Sunday, reports the AP. Linebacker Jerry Hughes posted a video on Instagram showing him and linebacker Zach Brown in a car, supposedly en route to M&T Bank Stadium for the season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. A Bills official said the two players could have waited for a second team bus leaving from the hotel, but NYup.com notes that the Bills were already short-handed and couldn't lose two starters.
