Buccaneers | Tampa Bay's injury report for Week 18 Fri Jan 6, 01:39 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Carlton Davis (shoulder), DB Logan Ryan (knee), OT Donovan Smith (foot) and DT Vita Vea (calf) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 18 against the Atlanta Falcons. LB Carl Nassib (pectoral) was limited in practice all week but has also been ruled out. S Mike Edwards (hamstring, hip) and WR Julio Jones (knee, illness) were limited in practice Friday, Jan. 6, and are listed as questionable. CB Jamel Dean (toe) was upgraded to a full practice Friday but is also listed as questionable. LB Lavonte David (rest) and DE Akiem Hicks (rest) did not practice Friday but are expected to play. OT Tristan Wirfs (ankle) and QB Tom Brady (rest) practiced in full Friday and no longer appear on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: We'll see how long Tom Brady and the starters play in a meaningless game against Atlanta. It's probably better to not trust Brady, Mike Evans, and Chris Godwin over players with full motivation this week. |

Buccaneers | Tampa Bay's injury report for Week 2 Fri Sep 16, 03:58 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 2 versus the New Orleans Saints. OT Donovan Smith (elbow) did not practice all week and is listed as doubtful. CB Zyon McCollum (hamstring) was limited in practice for a second straight day on Friday, Sept. 16, but is also listed as doubtful. WR Mike Evans (calf), RB Leonard Fournette (hamstring), WR Russell Gage Jr. (hamstring), WR Julio Jones (knee), WR Breshad Perriman (knee) and OT Tristan Wirfs (abdomen) were limited in practice Friday and are listed as questionable. LB Lavonte David (rest) and DE Akiem Hicks (rest) did not practice on Friday but are expected to play. QB Tom Brady (rest) practiced in full Friday and no longer appears on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Expect all of the wideouts and Fournette to play, but check back on Sunday morning to be safe. Rookie running back Rachaad White could play a large role in the passing game against the Saints. |

Buccaneers | Akiem Hicks set to call Tampa home Tue May 31, 01:44 PM
Free-agent DL Akiem Hicks (Bears) reportedly agreed to terms on a one-year contract worth up to $10 million with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Tuesday, May 31.
| Footballguys view: This means Ndamukong Suh is unlikely to be back with the team. The Bucs also lost Jason Pierre-Paul from their championship defense, but they used each of their last two first picks on defensive linemen, so along with Hicks acquisition, Tampa has made the moves to keep the defensive line a strength despite the losses. |
