Top Buccaneers News

  • Buccaneers' Chase Lucas: Placed on injured reserve

    The Buccaneers placed Lucas (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Lucas started training camp on the active/PUP list and just will not be ready to contribute to the 2026 campaign in a way the Buccaneers will be content with. The cornerback will now spend the entirety of the 2026 season on injured reserve unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

  • Buccaneers' Roman Parodie: Returns to Tampa Bay

    The Bucs signed Parodie to a contract Monday, Gabriel Kahalan of the team's official site reports.

    Parodie was waived from the Bucs' injured reserve list in September of 2025, but remained a free agent for the remainder of the 2025 season. The cornerback is now back with the Buccaneers and ready to compete for a depth spot on the 53-man roster. The consistency in location means that if Parodie does not make the roster, there is still a good chance he finds a home on the team's practice squad after cutdown day.

  • Buccaneers' Kemon Hall: Placed on injured reserve

    The Buccaneers placed Hall (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Hall will now spend the entirety of the 2026 season on injured reserve unless he is waived with an injury settlement. The cornerback played in four games for the Titans in 2025, logging 136 total snaps, and will be a free agent come the 2027 offseason.

  • Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Trade standoff persists

    The Buccaneers have "no plans" to trade Vea (back), Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    While the Buccaneers appear intent on holding on to Vea, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reporting that the defensive tackle's camp sees no end to the current stalemate other than a trade. With both Vea heading into a contract year, the star defensive tackle could be set to "hold in" for a longer period than either party is comfortable with.

  • Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Remains sidelined at practice

    McMillan (knee) did not participate at the Buccaneers' practice Thursday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    McMillan has been sidelined all week after suffering a knee injury at some point prior to Monday's practice. The wide receiver has been wearing a compression sleeve on his left leg, and at this point, the team hasn't expressed a significant level of concern about the injury. McMillan will be battling with rookie Ted Hurst and second-year wideout Tez Johnson (groin) for targets behind expected leaders Chris Godwin and Emeka Egbuka in the wide receiver room this season.

  • Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Back at practice Thursday

    Egbuka (lower body) will participate in Thursday's practice, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Egbuka was held out of the Buccaneers' most recent session Tuesday night due to lower body soreness, but the second-year wideout is apparently feeling healthier after a couple days of rest and recovery. After posting a 63-938-6 receiving line as a rookie while playing all 17 games for Tampa Bay, Egbuka could see a boosted profile in the passing attack in 2026 with longtime No. 1 wideout Mike Evans now playing in San Francisco.

  • Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Dealing with soreness

    Coach Todd Bowles said Egbuka didn't practice Tuesday due to soreness in his lower body, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    With Mike Evans out of the picture in Tampa Bay, Egbuka is expected to take on greater significance in the passing game alongside veteran Chris Godwin. Egbuka had a strong start to his rookie 2025 campaign but slowed down in the second half en route to 63 catches (on 127 targets) for 938 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season contests. With more targets likely for him this season, his first 1,000-yard season is fully within the realm of possible outcomes in 2026.

  • Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Suffers groin strain

    Johnson sustained a strained groin during practice Tuesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Johnson had to leave practice early Tuesday after picking up the injury. It's unclear at this point how severe the strain is or how long it will keep the second-year wideout sidelined. Any missed time in practice or preseason games could be a big deal for Johnson, as he's jockeying for pecking-order position with the likes of Jalen McMillan (knee) and Ted Hurst in the Bucs' wideout room.

  • Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Dealing with knee issue

    McMillan didn't practice Monday or Tuesday after banging a knee "a couple days ago," Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    McMillan was wearing a sleeve on his left calf during practice Tuesday, but it sounds like the issue that's kept him out of practice is related to one of his knees. Head coach Todd Bowles suggested the Bucs are just being careful with McMillan, so it doesn't appear he's dealing with a long-term issue.

  • Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Held out of practice Tuesday

    McMillan (calf) isn't practicing Tuesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Per Laine, McMillan is wearing a compression sleeve on his left calf and was dealing with some soreness Monday, when he was also kept out of practice. It doesn't sound like the issue is a major concern, especially at this point in camp, but the Bucs are likely to play it safe with the wideout until he's able to shake the soreness. McMillan missed most of last year due to a neck injury, though he has a chance to move up to a bigger role in 2026 following the departure of Mike Evans to San Francisco.

  • Buccaneers' David Walker: Back to action

    Walker (knee) passed his physical and is back to full health for training camp, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Walker tore his ACL during the third practice of 2025 training camp, ending his rookie season before he had a chance to suit up for a single game. The 2025 fourth-rounder is now back and looking to make a case for a spot on a revamped linebackers corps ahead of the 2026 season.

  • Buccaneers' Benjamin Morrison: Back at practice Sunday

    Morrison (hamstring) was a full participant in Sunday's training camp practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Morrison missed the first three practices of training camp while tending to a lingering hamstring injury from the 2025 season, but he was back in action Sunday with no restrictions. Leg injuries limited the 2025 second-rounder to 10 regular-season games during his rookie year, finishing with 26 tackles (19 solo), four pass defenses and one fumble recovery. Morrison is projected to start opposite Zyon McCollum at outside cornerback, with Josh Hayes and Damarion Williams providing depth at the position.

  • Buccaneers' Haggai Ndubuisi: Reverts to IR

    Ndubuisi (undisclosed) reverted to the Buccaneers' injured reserve Friday after clearing waivers, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Now that he's on the IR, Ndubuisi will be forced to miss the entire 2026 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Buccaneers. He joined the NFL in April of 2022 through the International Player Pathway program and made his pro debut as a member of the Texans in Week 14 of the 2025 campaign against the Chiefs, which is his lone appearance in a regular-season game.

  • Buccaneers' Kenneth Gainwell: Getting receiving work in camp

    Gainwell has been utilized primarily as a receiver out of the backfield in training camp while Bucky Irving has handled most of the rushing workload, Adam Silvon of Pewterreport.com reports.

    Irving is likely to get the majority of rushing opportunities in the regular season, and the Buccaneers also have Sean Tucker, who was used prominently in the red zone in 2025. Gainwell's niche is expected to be passing situations, so it's good to see him building early rapport with quarterback Baker Mayfield. Gainwell led the Steelers with 73 catches in the 2025 regular season, while Tampa Bay's running backs combined for 78 receptions last season.

  • Buccaneers' Ko Kieft: Seen participating in camp

    Kieft (leg) is on the field participating in the Buccaneers' training camp activities.

    Kieft injured his leg in Week 3 of the 2025 season and was unable to finish out the last year of his contract with the Buccaneers. He signed another one-year deal with the team in March and is ready to pick up where he left off as a blocking tight end and special-teams asset.
