🚨Chris Godwin Jr: Full participant in today’s practice 🚨

Aaron Glenn meets SWV’s “Right Here” (featuring Michael Jackson’s “Human Nature”) 🫶

The hamstring strain for Mike Evans was described to me as “mild to moderate.” Here’s how things are looking for him and for the Bucs as he’ll miss multiple games www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

The Bucs brought back 400+ pound Desmond Watson last week for a tryout and were encouraged by what they saw in the progress he’s made getting healthy on his own, so they signed him to their practice squad www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Source tells me Mike Evans has a moderate hamstring strain. 3-4 weeks.

Bucs coach Todd Bowles said Monday that Mike Evans will get an MRI Tuesday (it was originally scheduled for Monday and got moved to Tuesday) but right now “they deem it as low grade but we’ll see when it comes out.”

So…Aaron Glenn’s sideline celebration is 🔥🔥🔥 with Earth, Wind & Fire attached to it.

Here are details on Mike Evans’ hamstring injury and the latest on what we know…and no, it’s not the same one as last year that forced him to miss three games www.espn.com/video/clip/_...

Baker Mayfield still feels the sting of Steve Wilks cutting him with the Panthers in 2022. That led him to find a home in Tampa and teammates like Emeka Egbuka who said, "[He's] someone who is willing to die on the field before giving up or shutting down." www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Bucs coach Todd Bowles said of Mike Evans, "So far it's a hamstring tweak. I have not gone in to see the final details yet." A source tells me he will undergo an MRI to determine the extent of it.

The Bucs have elevated offensive lineman Tyler McLellan from the practice squad to the 53-man roster for tomorrow’s game. They did not elevate offensive lineman Michael Jordan, who has been elevated the last two games and started both at left guard but is battling a knee injury.

Sources tell ESPN‬⁩ that Bucs rookie sensation Emeka Egbuka is expected to play vs the Jets www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Here is the final injury report for Jets at Bucs on Sunday…

Bucs rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, who is currently tied for a league-leading three touchdowns, will be questionable for Sunday’s game against the Jets. And there’s even more offensive line trouble… www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Being without Tristan Wirfs, Luke Goedeke expected to miss time and Cody Mauch done for the year — as tough of a blow as it is, I’d take Bucs OL coaches Kevin Carberry and Brian Picucci over anybody in the league to solve that. Their work last year + this year speaks for itself.

The Bucs’ offensive line will be forced to do even more shuffling with Cody Mauch now out for the season www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Could not resist sharing… We all know former Bucs outside linebacker Shaq Barrett to be a really tough guy. But he’s no match for a dirty diaper 😂😂😂 (Courtesy of his wife Jordanna Barrett)

Aside from the hilarious response Baker Mayfield had for CJ Gardner-Johnson today — “We don’t take any sh—,” Mayfield and his counterparts took some hard hits Monday night. A look at where they stand health-wise as they eye a 3-0 start www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Baker Mayfield was a full participant in today’s walk-through. Emeka Egbuka has a hip/groin injury. Cody Mauch (knee) and Luke Goedeke (foot), did not participate. No injury designation for Rachaad White despite leaving Monday night and returning.

I asked Baker Mayfield what went through his mind when he took that hit and then sprang back up and started jawing with CJ Gardner-Johnson. “We don’t take any sh—. That’s about it.”

Bucs defensive tackle Calijah Kancey is out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Two weeks in a row now that the Bucs’ offense has delivered in two-minute. Also two weeks in a row they’ve surrendered an explosive touchdown on the opening drive. More thoughts on their Week 2 win: www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Pretty much says it all for Baker Mayfield. First primetime win as a Buc in his home state of Texas, does it with a two-minute drive at the end and…Whataburger.

Troy Aikman: “I don’t know how you can meet Baker Mayfield and not just love the guy.”

With that third touchdown, rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka now has the most receiving touchdowns (three) through two career games of any player in Bucs history.

Bucs starting right tackle Luke Goedeke (foot) is out for the remainder of the game. More offensive line shuffling. Charlie Heck is in there now.

Houston definitely trying to exploit SirVocea Dennis in coverage the way the Falcons were able to with Bijan Robinson last week.

Lavonte David making his 200th career start tonight. So special to witness his greatness — as an athlete, as a teammate, as a human being — all these years.

29-yard touchdown from Nico Collins with Zyon McCollum in coverage…right on the boundary. The Bucs surrendered a 50-yard touchdown on the opening drive last week but recovered to limit explosives the remainder of the game.

Inactives for Bucs at Texans: WR Chris Godwin Jr., WR Tez Johnson, RB Josh Williams, S Rashad Wisdom, T Tristan Wirfs and TE Devin Culp. Practice squad elevation: OL Michael Jordan

The Bucs have once again elevated offensive lineman Michael Jordan from the practice squad for tonight’s Monday Night Football game. He started at left guard last week when the Bucs showed a completely reconfigured offensive line.

After back-to-back seasons of career bests for Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield, I asked him what more he’s seeking in 2025. He put it simply, “More wins.” Securing a regular season primetime victory tonight would help www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Always tried to be a “gamer” no matter what. Not possible this week. No practice and no Houston. Younger me would say I’ve gone soft. I’d tell her to stop doing back flips off park benches, driving is overrated, never take the stairs and air casts don’t fix bad backs. Be back 🔜

Final injury report for Bucs at Texans. Starting right tackle Luke Goedeke (foot) returned to practice today and is officially listed as questionable.

Thinking of those who lost their lives today, Sept. 11, 2001, and in subsequent events, and of those who were left behind whom today is especially heavy for. I pray for your healing, I pray for your peace and I pray that you and I never lose hope.

Praying for peace, love and understanding at a time when so much of it is lacking. Violence is never the answer. Harming those we disagree with is never the answer. Let us restore what it means to have common decency and see the humanity in others.

Kameron Johnson has been named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week after his 54-yard punt return against the Falcons. He also downed a punt inside the 20-yard line as a gunner.

To Cam Bynum, this interception celebration is called “Madden glitch.” To the grown folk though, it’s called, “Sciatica.”

Bucs offensive line 🤝 happy accidents

I asked Emeka Egbuka what he learned about his new Bucs teammates in their first game together. “That we’re resilient,” he said. “We play as a team, we play as a unit, we play for the love of each other.”

You’ll hear Emeka Egbuka talk here about how he doesn’t place his value in being a football player. I wanted to add some context to that — he’ll tell you that’s what it USED to be, but now it’s in his love for Jesus and serving Him. His faith is everything to him.

It may have been his first NFL game, but Bucs rookie receiver Emeka Egbuka called his shot in the huddle en route to a game-winning touchdown over the Falcons — his second of the day. “He’s the real deal,” Baker Mayfield said. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

How good was Antoine Winfield Jr. in the end there?!

The way that touchdown pass just slipped right over Xavier Watts' fingertips and into the hands of Emeka Egbuka...GASP

The Bucs opted to go for it on fourth-and-1 from the Tampa Bay 36...Baker Mayfield found Mike Evans on a crossing route for a 6-yard gain...prior to that, Mayfield had only completed one pass in six attempts. They've had a hard time establishing the run too.

Well that's certainly a statement for Atlanta...Bijan Robinson catches a pass in the flat and takes it 50 yards for a touchdown. Missed tackles from SirVocea Dennis and Lavonte David on that play. Falcons leading 7-0.

It's not often we get surprises like this, but the Bucs are unveiling a reconfigured offensive line today that we did not see them work in training camp: Graham Barton will play left tackle, Ben Bredeson will play center and Michael Jordan will play left guard.

The Bucs have elevated defensive lineman Adam Gotsis and offensive lineman Michael Jordan from the practice squad for tomorrow’s Bucs-Falcons game.
