In a crucial matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be without their starting right tackle due to a lingering concussion issue. This marks the third consecutive week the team will be missing his presence on the field. Despite practicing throughout the week, albeit with limitations, he failed to clear the necessary protocols.
Additionally, the team’s starting running back has been added to the injury report with an illness, leaving his status for the game uncertain. If he is unable to participate, the team may turn to a rookie backup who has been dealing with a hamstring issue. Although limited in practice, the rookie has expressed confidence in his ability to play.
In response to recent injuries, the Buccaneers have made some roster adjustments. A veteran wide receiver has been called up from the practice squad for the second week in a row, filling a gap left by a pair of injured rookie receivers. The team has also elevated a punter to address recent struggles in that department.
