Buccaneers: A new Bountygate?

He claims that ex-Buccaneers player Donald Penn warned the pass rusher to intentionally injure their opponents. The threats were reportedly revealed during the last game of the year, as Atlanta was heading to the playoffs.
Contacted by JoeBucsFan.com, Penn denies the allegations. While Schiano is known for his tough calls, it should be remembered that former Saints coach Sean Payton was suspended by the NFL for setting injury bounties in New Orleans.
