Tampa Bay Buccaneers center Jeff Faine has been ruled out for Sunday's showdown in London against the Chicago Bears, NFL Network's Albert Breer reported Saturday, citing a team source.

Defensive tackle Gerald McCoy remains unlikely to play after not practicing Friday due to a nagging high ankle sprain, but the team has not entirely ruled out the second-year defender, Breer reported.
McCoy has started five games this season and Faine has started all six for the 4-2 Bucs, who sit tied atop the NFC South with the New Orleans Saints.
Along with Faine (arm), the Bucs will be without LeGarrette Blount, their second-year running back who will miss the game with a knee injury.
Blount injured his knee during the first half of the Bucs' 48-3 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5.
