Briggs Doubtful for Saturday

A knee injury will likely sideline veteran defensive end Tom Briggs for Saturday's regular season finale against Columbus, and it remains to be seen when, exactly, he'll be able to return to the field. Briggs, who injured the knee in the Storm's 69-40 win over Grand Rapids last weekend, had two MRIs today, but his prognosis is unclear.

Briggs is tied for the team lead in sacks with 5.0, and second in tackles for loss with 6.5.

He'll likely be replaced by Clint Mitchell, a former University of Florida standout.
