Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Chase Edmonds (knee) was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday, Sept. 20. In addition, DL Patrick O'Connor was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster.
Footballguys view: Edmonds will not be out for at least four weeks as he deals with this MCL sprain. The Buccaneers will take his snaps and give them to guys like Rachaad White or rookie Sean Tucker. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Carlton Davis' (toe) status for Week 3 is uncertain at this point, according to head coach Todd Bowles.
Link to storyCarlton Davis III player page
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Chase Edmonds (knee) is having an MRI on his knee Monday, Sept. 18, with the focus on his medial collateral ligament.
Footballguys view: The Buccaneers are rolling, and RB Rachaad White has been productive as their featured back. Behind him, rookie Sean Tucker is a player we're monitoring closely in dynasty formats. Without Edmonds out there, the Bucs could also turn to Ke'Shawn Vaughn when White needs a breather. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE David Wells had two receptions on two targets in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, but he ended up with minus-10 yards. He had a fumble, which was recovered by QB Baker Mayfield well behind the line of scrimmage.
Link to storyTampa Bay Buccaneers WRs Rakim Jarrett and Trey Palmer each recorded one reception in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears. Jarrett had a 7-yard grab on his lone target, while Palmer had a 20-yard catch while being targeted twice.
Link to storyTampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton was good for six receptions for 41 yards on six targets in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears.
Footballguys view: Otton has some waiver wire to your lineup tight end value for Week 3 with the Eagles defense that just gave up two scores to T.J. Hockenson up next. |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin ended up with five receptions for 58 yards on eight targets in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears.
Footballguys view: Godwin was missed by Baker Mayfield on a possible score and put up an ok, but not stellar fantasy line for the second straight week. The good news is that Baker Mayfield is playing better than expected and Godwin is at least delivering on his WR3/Flex cost - with room for his value to grow as the season goes on. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans registered six receptions for a game-best 171 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, and he had a game-best 70-yard reception which set up another score. He was targeted eight times, tying the team high for the week.
Footballguys view: Evans had a 70-yard catch and run to get the Bucs offense going and reeled in a long score to help the Bucs and many fantasy teams to get to 2-0. He is looking like one of the biggest values in fantasy drafts as players were too quick to dismiss him as one of Baker Mayfield's top receivers after so many others struggled with him in the past. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Sean Tucker had eight rushing attempts in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, but he was good for seven yards. He was not targeted in the pass game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Rachaad White rushed 17 times for a game-high 73 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, and he added five grabs for 30 yards on his five targets to get over 100 total scrimmage yards.
Footballguys view: White scored on a third and goal carry from the five in a sign of trust for the second-year back. The success of Baker Mayfield is going to lift White's boat in fantasy leagues, as his dud in Week 1 vs. Minnesota is in the rearview mirror now. Consider White a boom/bust RB2/Flex play against the Eagles next week. |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield completed 26-of-34 passes for 317 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, while also rushing six times for 17 yards.
Footballguys view: Mayfield is much better cast as a plucky undersized quarterback trying to prove himself than as a #1 overall pick trying to justify his lofty status. His chemistry with Mike Evans has been the best we've seen with any outside receiver in his career, and Mayfield is playing the focus, fire, and competitiveness we saw in his initial successful stretch with Cleveland. He has value in superflex leagues and should be productive against the Eagles next week. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (shoulder) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 13.
Footballguys view: Mayfield should be out there against the Bears in Week 2. Only Fantasy GMs in start-2 QB leagues should be monitoring his practice status. Mayfield is a mid-range QB2 even in what could be seen as a juicy matchup. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans is not expected to be traded after the deadline for an extension passed.
Footballguys view: Evans set a deadline last week to get a new contract done. Nothing happened, and now people have speculated Evans will get dealt before the trade deadline. The logic is that the Buccaneers should get something for him this year before he leaves in free agency and they get nothing (well, they'd get a compensatory pick). At this time, the Buccaneers are putting it out there that he is not going to be traded. The right offer would change their mind, so as always - stay tuned. |
