Bulls S Fullwood looking better

TAMPA — Veteran USF S Tajee Fullwood, who missed the East Carolina game with an ankle injury, practiced for the second consecutive day Wednesday and has looked OK, defensive coordinator Brian Jean-Mary said.

How much he plays Saturday against Cincinnati remains unclear.

“You know how some of those injuries are: We want to make sure we’re not bringing him back too early where he re-injures it and now he's out for a longer period of time,” Jean-Mary said. “We want to make sure he's healthy before he hits the field.”

Meantime, slot WR Deangelo Antoine — out the last two games with an ankle injury — practiced again and was seen running sprints at the end.

“He’s been good, real good,” offensive coordinator Sterlin Gilbert said. “It’s good to see him back out there and moving around.”
