Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (groin, hip) was not on the field during the media-access portion of practice Thursday, Sept. 18, but was expected to participate in at least a portion of practice.
| Footballguys view: It's a bit of a concern for one of our favorite rookies this year. Egbuka has been coming through for QB Baker Mayfield, and he's got big-play ability anytime he touches the ball. Let's see what he can do on Friday as the Bucs prepare to take on the Jets in Week 3. |
Buccaneers | Week 4 for Chris Godwin? Thu Sep 18, 02:32 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (knee) returning in Week 4 'feels like a real possibility,' sources told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Godwin's return was supposed to be around Week 5, so a week earlier doesn't sound outlandish. The Buccaneers are good to go with Mike Evans and Emeka Egbuka, so getting Godwin back would be a boost to an already high-powered offense. Upon his return, it might take take a couple of weeks for him to get back to full speed. |

Link to story Buccaneers | Calijah Kancey's season over Tue Sep 16, 12:59 PM
Updating previous reports, Tampa Bay Buccaneers DT Calijah Kancey (pectoral) is out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle.
| Footballguys view: The Bucs took Kancey with the 19th overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, and although calf injuries have caused him to miss time, he's been a starter when healthy since the beginning of his rookie year. Along with Pro Bowler Vita Vea, Kancey has played an integral role in the Bucs' push up the middle, registering a team-leading 7.5 sacks last season despite only seeing action in 12 games due to a calf injury. It's a significant loss for the NFC South favorites, who may find themselves in the market for some depth on the defensive line. |

Link to story Buccaneers | Bucky Irving racks up 121 yards on MNF Tue Sep 16, 12:14 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving gained 71 yards on 17 carries during the team's Week 2 win over the Houston Texans. Irving added six receptions (on six targets) for 50 yards.
| Footballguys view: Two seasons ago, the Buccaneers owned the NFL's worst running game and drafted accordingly, selecting Irving and enjoying instant success by leaning on him as the lead back in 2024. A year later, they've discovered they have two quality options that can be interchanged on any down. Irving and Rachaad White teamed up to tally 136 yards and a game-winning score on the ground Monday night. Irving showed tons of explosion and swiftness while knifing through the Texans' defense, and White spelled him effectively. But it's Irving who sits at RB12 heading into a Week 3 meeting with the Jets. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (ankle) has been ruled out of the Week 2 game, according to head coach Todd Bowles.
| Footballguys view: The reports about Godwin getting out there in Week 2 did seem a bit outlandish. When things were initially reported on this injury, many felt Godwin would be out until Week 5 or Week 6. It's good to see that he may be closer to a return, but it's not happening on Monday night against the Texans. |

Buccaneers | Friday practice report for Tampa Bay Fri Sep 12, 04:40 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (foot), OT Luke Goedeke (foot), and WR Mike Evans (rest) did not practice on Friday, Sept. 12. DL Greg Gaines (ankle), TE Ko Kieft (head), OT Tristan Wirfs (knee) were limited in practice. S Christian Izien (oblique), CB Zyon McCollum (neck, shoulder), CB Benjamin Morrison (quad), and LB Haason Reddick (quad) practiced in full on Friday.
| Footballguys view: The Bucs are already likely to be without their left tackle, Wirfs. If their right tackle, Goedeke is also out, the Texans pass rush will be tough to slow down on Monday night. Don't expect a ceiling game from Baker Mayfield this week. |
