Buccaneers | Jalen McMillan returns to practice Wed Aug 19, 06:33 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Jalen McMillan (leg) returned to practice on Tuesday, Aug. 18, but HC Todd Bowles did say McMillan won't play in Saturday's preseason game with the Kansas City Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: McMillan has some extra injury upside now that Emeka Egbuka has been diagnosed with a toe sprain. Hopefully McMillan can stay on the field and Egbuka will be full go for Week 1. McMillan's ADP is down in the 150s, which seems cheap for a third year receiver who is in a productive offense and has already shown that he can hang on Sundays. |

Buccaneers | Emeka Egbuka day-to-day, week-to-week Mon Aug 17, 04:24 PM
Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles said Monday that wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, the Bucs' first-round draft pick in 2025, is "day-to-day, week-to-week" with a toe sprain suffered during joint practices at the New York Jets last week.
| Footballguys view: Bowles added that he's "not sure at this time" if the situation will impact Egbuka's availability for Week 1. With Mike Evans now on the San Francisco 49ers, Egbuka, who is lining up primarily as a Z receiver, is expected to get a large number of targets in 2026. We'll continue to watch this one closely. |
Buccaneers | Tristan Wirfs able to practice Mon Aug 17, 03:54 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers OT Tristan Wirfs (hamstring) participated in practice Monday, Aug. 17.
| Footballguys view: Getting their All-Pro left tackle on the field is a huge positive. Wirfs has been sitting out since suffering a hamstring strain in the team's conditioning test at the beginning of camp. "We're starting to ramp him up a little bit, see how much he can go through this week, kind of go from there," Bowles said. Having Wirfs, one of the best players at his position in the league, will be important. Expect a cautious approach. |
Buccaneers | Jalen McMillan to miss more time Mon Aug 17, 03:45 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Jalen McMillan (knee) is considered day-to-day or week-to-week because of a knee injury, according to head coach Todd Bowles.
| Footballguys view: Expectations were high for McMillan, who suffered a serious neck injury last preseason that limited him to just four games during the 2025 season. He returned to action in Week 14. Two games later, he recorded the first 100-yard game of his career. He finished the final two weeks of the season with 12 receptions for 178 yards. During his rookie season in 2024, he totaled 37 receptions for 461 yards and eight touchdowns in 13 games. We'll continue to follow up as developments warrant. |

Buccaneers | Emeka Egbuka injury update Wed Aug 12, 03:04 PM
Updating a previous report, Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (toe) suffered a toe injury during practice Wednesday, Aug. 12, but the injury is not believed to be serious, according to source.
| Footballguys view: We're not going to be alarmists here, but toe injuries can be turf toe injuries...and those can linger. If sources say the injury is not considered serious, then all we can do is monitor Egbuka for the rest of training camp and the preseason. If healthy and ready for Week 1 (and this report makes it sound like he should be), Egbuka is a WR2/flex with upside for Fantasy GMs on a weekly basis. |

Buccaneers | Emeka Egbuka limps off Wed Aug 12, 11:27 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (undisclosed) limped off the field to be examined by trainers Wednesday, Aug. 12.
| Footballguys view: Keep an eye on this situation. Egbuka limped off with the help of trainers, and then watched from the sidelines. The Bucs are going to be wisely cautious with Egbuka. When we know more about the injury, we'll have more of an idea as to what kind of timeline could be needed in recovery. |

Link to story Buccaneers | Chris Godwin returning to form? Mon Aug 10, 12:58 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin is 'a lot healthier right now' than he has been in recent years, according to head coach Todd Bowles. 'He is still a playmaker for us, and he makes big plays in the passing and blocking game,' Bowles said. 'He is peaking at the right time.'
| Footballguys view: In addition to being healthy, ESPN's Jenna Laine reports that Godwin has looked "energized: throughout practices, and we've seen him show some versatility in lining up all over the formation. According to Footballguy Matt Waldman, Godwin will likely be Baker Mayfield's favorite red-zone target and contend for the team lead in touchdowns. Waldman added, "The danger of a decline is near," but at Godwin's price -- he's WR40 -- the risk isn't great. |

Buccaneers | Tez Johnson tweaked groin Thu Aug 6, 04:04 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Tez Johnson (groin) left practice early Tuesday, Aug. 4, to receive treatment for a groin injury, according to head coach Todd Bowles.
| Footballguys view: Jalen McMillan is also dealing with a knee issue that has him sidelined indefinitely, so rookie third round pick Ted Hurst will get more work with Baker Mayfield and the starters for now. He could move onto our late round target list with strong performances in practice. Johnson was having a great summer before his injury. As long as he gets better soon and goes into the season as a primary backup receiver for the Bucs at multiple positions, we should keep Johnson on our waiver wire watch list. |

Buccaneers | Baker Mayfield, TB 'on collision course for franchise tag' Tue Aug 4, 04:26 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers are on a 'collision course for franchise tag' which would pay him at least $47 million in 2027, in the opinion of ESPN's Jeremy Fowler on Tuesday, Aug. 4.
| Footballguys view: The past three Bucs who received the tag -- Antoine Winfield Jr., Chris Godwin Jr., and Shaquil Barrett -- all got long-term deals eventually. Mayfield knows this is a possibility and isn't afraid of it. Fowler notes the tag could also be a way for the Bucs to facilitate a trade to a QB-needy team, acquiring draft capital to select the quarterback of the future. Until then, the Bucs know Mayfield has been at his best when slighted, highly motivated, and riled up. It's worked for them in the past, and Mayfield definitely has something to prove this year. |
