TAMPA, Fla. -- Jameis Winston threw a pair of touchdown passes to Mike Evans and Tampa Bays rejuvenated defense shut down Russell Wilson and Seattles sputtering offense to beat the first-place Seahawks 14-5 on Sunday.Evans scored on receptions of 3 and 23 yards in the opening quarter, a grieving Alterraun Verner had one of two interceptions off Wilson, and the Bucs sacked the Seattle quarterback six times.The Bucs (6-5) have won three straight to climb back into contention for a playoff berth. In addition to stopping Seattles three-game winning streak, they remained one game behind first-place Atlanta in the NFC South.Playing two days after the death of his father, Verner picked off Wilson to stop a promising drive in the final minute of the opening half. The reserve cornerback was embraced on the sideline by teammates, who continued to play inspired defense in the second half.Bradley McDougald had the other interception off Wilson, who had thrown two in 335 attempts this season entering Sunday. Lavonte David returned a fumble 53 yards, ending another promising Seattle drive in the fourth quarter.Winston completed 21 of 28 passes for 220 yards and one interception. Evans had eight receptions for 104 yards, and Doug Martin rushed for 87 yards on 23 attempts for the Bucs.Wilson finished 17 of 33 for 151 yards. The Seahawks (7-3-1) were held to 1-yard net passing in the first half, when Wilson was sacked four times for 19 yards in losses.The Seahawks played without Earl Thomas, stopping a streak of 106 consecutive regular-season starts for the star safety, who had never missed an NFL game. Starting cornerback DeShawn Snead, who also suffered a hamstring injury during last weeks victory over Philadelphia, also sat out, leaving the Seattle secondary vulnerable.Winston took advantage, leading TD drives of 78 and 62 yards on Tampa Bays first two possessions. Evans first TD catch finished a 7-minute, 26-second march. The second -- over cornerback Richard Sherman -- dumped the Seahawks into an early 14-0 hole.SELECT COMPANYEvans joined Joey Galloway and Vincent Jackson as the only receivers in Bucs history with three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. He has 73 receptions for 1,020 yards through 11 games. On his second TD pass, Sherman appeared to complain to officials that the 6-foot-5, 231-pound receiver was holding him by the jersey while creating separation to make the catch in the end zone.INJURIESSeahawks: In addition to playing without Thomas and Shead, they lost TE Luke Willson (knee) in the opening quarter.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Two Olympic swimmers were taken off their flight from Brazil to the U.S. on Wednesday by local authorities amid an investigation into a reported robbery targeting Ryan Lochte and his teammates.U.S. Olympic Committee spokesman Patrick Sandusky confirmed Jack Conger and Gunnar Bentz were detained but had no other details.Representatives from the U.S. consulate arrived at the airport shortly after the swimmers were held.The action comes amid increasing tension between Brazilian authorities and the American swimmers over their account of the robbery.Lochte said he was with Conger, Bentz and Jimmy Feigen when they were robbed at gunpoint in a taxi by men with a police badge as they returned to the athletes village from a party, several hours after the last Olympic swimming events were held Sunday.Police have found little evidence so far to support their accounts, and say the swimmers were unable to provide key details in police interviews.NBC reported Wednesday night that Lochte backed off some of his earlier claims. He now says the taxi wasnt pulled over but that they were robbed after making a stop at a gas station.He also said the assailant pointed a gun at him rather than putting it to his head.The investigation intensified Wednesday as the swimmers started heading home to the U.S., and a Brazilian judge ordered the seizure of Lochte and Feigens passports.The U.S. Olympic Committee said police went to the athletes village to try to collect the passports, but the swim team had already moved out.Lochte has already returned to the U.S., and Conger and Bentz boarded a plane later Wednesday only to be removed by the authorities. Feigens whereabouts are not known, though he told the San Antonio Express-News he was still in Brazil.Steve Bentz, father of Gunnar Bentz, when reached by phone late Wednesday night, said: I really dont want to say anything, and hung up.Lochtes father, Steve Lochte, told The Associated Press by phone from his Florida home that his son called him Tuesday after arriving in the United States. The 32-year-old swimmer was going to pick up his car and buy a new wallet to replace the one that he said was stolen in the robbery.Im just happy hes safe, the elder Lochte said. It was an unfortunate experience for him and the other three. I dont know what all the controversy is. They were basically taken out of the taxi and robbed. The main thing is hes very lucky that hes safe and that all thhey got was his cash and wallet.ddddddddddddThe elder Lochte said his sons Olympic credential and cell phone werent taken during the incident early Sunday morning. He said he was sure Ryan had his passport or he would not have been allowed to board a plane.Associated Press reporters waiting outside Lochtes home in North Carolina did not see the 12-time medalist.Lochtes attorney, Jeff Ostrow, did not immediately return messages seeking comment.A police official with knowledge of the investigation told the AP that police cannot find their taxi driver or witnesses from the robbery. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.The group did not call police, authorities said, and officers began investigating once they saw media reports in which Lochtes mother spoke about the robbery. Police interviewed Lochte and one other swimmer, who said they had been intoxicated and could not remember what type and color of taxi they rode in or where the robbery happened, the police official said. The swimmers also could not say what time the events occurred.Ostrow has said there is no question the robbery occurred.Why would anybody fabricate anything? Steve Lochte said. Its just ridiculous.Lochte swam in two events at the Rio Games, winning gold in the 4x200-meter freestyle relay. Bentz, 21, and Conger, 20, also earned gold for swimming in the preliminary heats of the 4x200 relay. Feigen, 26, received gold for swimming in the heats of the 4x100 free relay, which was won by the U.S.Lochte described the incident to NBCs Today show.We got pulled over, in the taxi, and these guys came out with a badge, a police badge, no lights, no nothing just a police badge and they pulled us over, Lochte said. They pulled out their guns, they told the other swimmers to get down on the ground -- they got down on the ground. I refused, I was like we didnt do anything wrong, so -- Im not getting down on the ground.And then the guy pulled out his gun, he cocked it, put it to my forehead and he said, `Get down, and I put my hands up, I was like `whatever. He took our money, he took my wallet -- he left my cellphone, he left my credentials.Lochte told USA Today that he and his teammates didnt initially tell the U.S. Olympic officials about the robbery because we were afraid wed get in trouble.
