Finds end zone in OT loss Egbuka caught seven of 16 targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 overtime loss to the Steelers.
Impact It was the first time this season that Egbuka got double-digit targets, but the volume didn't turn into a whole lot of production aside from a two-yard TD in the second quarter. Egbuka still set a new season high in receptions, and he remains the first look for rookie quarterback Jalon Daniels while he fills in for Baker Mayfield (thumb). Egbuka will take a 28-240-2 line on 49 targets into a Week 7 clash with the Panthers.

Seven touches, one TD in win Egbuka secured six of nine targets for 38 yards and rushed once for a 14-yard touchdown in the Buccaneers' 24-16 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.
Impact Egbuka comfortably led the Buccaneers in receptions and targets, but his receiving yardage figure was a distant second to Tez Johnson. Egbuka did round out his fantasy night nicely with the first rushing touchdown of his career, which came on a jet sweep from 14 yards out to cap off the first drive of the second half. The increase in chemistry between Egbuka and Jalon Daniels in the latter's second start was encouraging from a fantasy perspective, and they'll have additional time to continue building rapport before a Week 6 home matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Limited production in Week 4 loss Egbuka brought in two of four targets for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Impact Egbuka's production downturn was at least partly the result of Jalon Daniels' up-and-down NFL debut under center. The second-year wideout was third in targets and tied for third in receptions with multiple teammates on the afternoon, but only Egbuka's yardage total, which was a season low, only bested that of Kameron Johnson's (three yards) in the loss. Egbuka now has a 15-154-1 line on 24 targets over his first four games, and with Baker Mayfield reportedly in line to miss up to a total of seven weeks, the former will have to progressively build chemistry with Daniels to retain solid fantasy value.

Gets nine targets in Week 3 Egbuka recorded five catches (on nine targets) for 62 yards during Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Vikings.
Impact Egbuka turned his highest target count in a game this season into his second-most receiving yards (behind Week 1's 63 such yards), but the Buccaneers' passing attack again was inconsistent under the direction of QB Baker Mayfield (17-for-34 for 217 yards, one TD and one interception). Mayfield suffered a dislocated thumb on his right throwing hand on the team's second-to-last possession, so if the veteran signal-caller needs to miss any time, Egubka then would be on the receiving end of passes from undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels, who didn't complete any of his three attempts Sunday.

Salvages day with second-half TD Egbuka brought in three of five targets for 16 yards and a touchdown while rushing once for minus-3 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-19 loss to the Browns on Sunday.
Impact Egbuka's minimal role was surprising, as he finished third in receptions and targets while slotting in all the way down at fifth in receiving yards for the Bucs on the afternoon. Egbuka's one redeeming play came on his five-yard touchdown grab early in the third quarter, but otherwise, his quiet performance mirrored the fortunes of his team in the upset loss. Egbuka will look to spearhead a much better offensive effort for Tampa Bay when an aggressive Vikings defense comes to town for a Week 3 clash next Sunday.
