The Tampa Bay Buccaneers shook up their short-handed offensive line in Sunday's 46-23 win against the Panthers, as Ryan Jensen shifted to guard and was replaced as the starting center by A.Q. Shipley to account for the loss of starting left guard Ali Marpet.
The changes come one week after Tampa Bay was overwhelmed on the line of scrimmage in its 38-3 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
The Buccaneers were without Marpet, who was ruled out for the second straight week because of a concussion.
Jensen has started at center in Tampa Bay's first nine games this season. Shipley has not started yet this season, his first with Tampa Bay, but was a favorite of Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians when they were together with the Arizona Cardinals.
Last week, the Bucs inserted backup Joe Haeg into Marpet's spot and he struggled. Haeg is more of a rotational player while Shipley is more of a true interior offensive lineman.
Shipley, an 11-year veteran, reunited with Arians this past offseason after spending the previous five years with the Cardinals.
