Returns to practice Thursday Winfield (toe) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Winfield came out of Monday's 24-9 loss to the Lions with a toe injury, which prevented him from participating in Wednesday's walkthrough. His ability to return to practice Thursday is a positive sign, and he would avoid an injury tag for Week 8 against the Saints if he were to practice Friday without restriction. Winfield has accumulated 35 tackles (22 solo), including 1.0 sacks, two pass defenses and one forced fumble through the first seven games of the regular season.

Dealing with toe injury Winfield did not participate in Wednesday's walkthrough practice due to a toe injury, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Winfield played 67 of 68 defensive snaps and played eight tackles (six solo) during the Buccaneers' 24-9 loss to the Lions on Monday, but he appears to have picked up a toe injury in the process. The 2020 second-rounder will have two more opportunities to return to practice and potentially avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact Winfield paced the Buccaneers in stops on a busy day for the defense, one that saw six plays record at least five tackles. The star safety hadn't posted more than four stops in any of the first five games of the season, but he had a big surge in that department while playing on all 69 of the defensive snaps. Winfield could well be busy again in Week 7, as the Buccaneers visit the Lions and their typically prolific offense for a Monday night showdown.

Three tackles vs. Seattle Winfield logged three tackles (one solo) and one pass defense during Sunday's 38-35 win over the Seahawks.

Winfield is off to a relatively slow start from a tackling standpoint, having registered four combined tackles or less in each of the first five games of the regular season.

Perhaps most importantly, Winfield looked healthy after playing in only eight regular-season games last year and missing time during training camp due to injury.
