INJURIES
Chris Braswell - Pair of QB hits in loss Braswell delivered one assisted tackle and two quarterback hits in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact Braswell played on 23 snaps overall (34 percent) and was able to make contact with Bo Nix twice during the lopsided loss. The rookie second-round pick is filling a modest rotational role thus far in his nascent career, topping out at 24 snaps back in Week 1 and recording just three tackles (one solo) across his first three contests.

Zyon McCollum - Gets hands on two more passes McCollum furnished six tackles (three solo) and defensed two passes in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact McCollum has now gotten his hands on six passes over the last two games, with one of those going for an interception. The third-year pro, who is handling the starting right cornerback role this season following the departure of Carlton Davis, has allowed a minuscule 27.3 completion percentage and 3.3 yards per attempt on the 11 pass attempts he's faced in primary coverage through three games.

Jordan Whitehead - Solid tackle output in loss Whitehead tallied six tackles (three solo) in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact The veteran safety tied with several teammates for third in tackles on the afternoon for the Buccaneers. Whitehead has played the last two games without Antoine Winfield (foot) alongside him in the defensive backfield, and the former has collected 17 tackles (11 solo) and a defensed pass over that span.

K.J. Britt - Six-tackle effort in loss Britt recorded six tackles (five solo) in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact Britt tied with several teammates for third in tackles on the afternoon. The fourth-year pro played on 35 snaps (51 percent) overall, and he's accrued a solid 15 tackles (10 solo) in his part-time role thus far.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Trey Palmer - Blanked again in Sunday's loss Palmer failed to bring in his only target in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact Palmer played on just 12 snaps from scrimmage overall (21 percent) and added another five on special teams. The second-year wideout saw 20 snaps on offense in the season-opening win over the Commanders, but he's only combined for one more than that over the previous two games. Palmer remains a fantasy afterthought for the time being in a No. 4 receiver role that hasn't facilitated any production thus far.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Payne Durham - Makes first catch of season Durham secured his only target for eight yards in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact Durham was in on 21 percent of the snaps -- 12 plays total -- which represented a new low over his first three games. However, the second-year prop at least came away with his first reception of the season. Top tight end Cade Otton finally saw his production rise in new coordinator Liam Coen's scheme with a seven-catch outing, but Durham still doesn't have a very bright outlook as his backup considering he's primarily being used in a blocking capacity.

Sean Tucker - Plays minor role in Week 3 loss Tucker rushed once for four yards and returned one kickoff for 27 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact Tucker did log a carry on his only snap from scrimmage, and he put in another 13 on special teams. Tucker's cameo on offense at least represented an improvement from a Week 2 win over the Lions where he never saw the field in that capacity, but the second-year back doesn't seem to have a path to any meaningful playing time as long as Rachaad White and Bucky Irving are healthy.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Evan Deckers - Will miss time Deckers (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Deckers suffered the injury in Sunday's loss to the Broncos and will now be forced to miss the team's next four games, leaving the Buccaneers without their long snapper. In a corresponding move, the team signed Zach Triner from their practice squad to handle that role starting Sunday against the Eagles.
SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Luke Goedeke - Making progress Goedeke (concussion) is making progress through the league's protocols and there is hope he can play Sunday against the Eagles, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Goedeke has missed the Buccaneers' last two games but has shown enough progress in his recovery to be optimistic about a Week 4 return. However, with steps in the NFL's concussion protocols left to be completed, he'll remain questionable for the matchup with Philadelphia for now.

QB Stock Market Week 4: Aaron Rodgers looks rejuvenated. Where’s Patrick Mahomes’ mojo?
Chase McLaughlin - Victim of circumstance Sunday McLaughlin did not attempt any field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact The veteran kicker hasn't been used to spending the majority of a game on the sideline during his year-plus Buccaneers tenure, but Sunday was a forgettable day all the way around for Tampa Bay. The significantly subdued offensive performance -- Baker Mayfield threw for only 163 yards and took seven sacks -- kept McLaughlin from any field-goal opportunities, only the fourth time that's happened since the start of last season and the second in which the scenario also featured just a sole point-after attempt. McLaughlin should have more scoring chances in a Week 4 home matchup against the Eagles.
SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen McMillan - One grab in Week 3 loss McMillan brought in his only target for six yards in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Impact McMillan still saw a robust 77 percent snap share (44 snaps) as the clear No. 3 receiver Sunday, but he posted a new low in receiving yards after recording 32 and 21 on a catch apiece during his first two NFL games. However, it bears noting the entire afternoon was an exercise in underachievement as far as the entire Buccaneers' offense was concerned, with Baker Mayfield throwing for only 163 yards at 4.9 yards per attempt. McMillan's first opportunity to atone for the underwhelming performance comes in a Week 4 home showdown against the Eagles.

Christian Izien - Eight tackles in defeat Izien recorded eight total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 26-7 loss to Denver.
Impact Izien was a busy man for a second straight week, drawing another start for Antoine Winfield (foot) at free safety. Izien finished tied with linebacker Lavonte David for the second-most stops on the team behind cornerback Jamel Dean. To this point in 2024, Izien has compiled 20 total tackles (13 solo), an interception, three passes defensed and a forced fumble over three games.

Lavonte David - Forced fumble in loss David recorded eight total tackles (three solo) and a forced fumble in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Broncos.
Impact David finished second on the team to cornerback Jamel Dean in takedowns while forcing a fumble on a carry by Denver running back Javonte Williams in the second quarter, which was ultimately recovered by teammate Logan Hall. David has now compiled 21 total tackles (12 solo) and a forced fumble over the first three games in 2024.

Jamel Dean - Productive day in Week 3 Dean recorded 13 total tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Broncos.
Impact Dean was a busy man against Denver, leading the team with 13 takedowns in the contest. The cornerback has now produced double-digit tackles in back-to-back weeks after crossing that threshold just twice over 13 games in 2023. Through three contests in 2024, Dean has compiled 28 total tackles (20 solo) and a pass defensed.
