Dealing with high-ankle sprain Diaby sustained a high-ankle sprain during practice Thursday and is expected to miss four-to-six weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact It looked like Diaby had sustained a serious injury Thursday after he was unable to put any weight on his leg and was carted off the field. Luckily, X-rays came back negative, though it appears that the 2023 third-round pick is in jeopardy of missing the regular-season opener against the Commanders on Sept. 9. Diaby is coming off a strong rookie campaign in which he registered 38 tackles (25 solo), including 7.5 sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season games. With Randy Gregory yet to report to training camp, Chris Braswell, Anthony Nelson and Markees Watts will have increased reps in practice and preseason games, and they could be competing for the second starting outside linebacker job opposite Joe Tryon-Shoyinka if Diaby were to be sidelined for the start of the regular season.

Injured during practice Diaby suffered an ankle injury during practice Thursday and was carted off the field, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Diaby was unable to put weight on his leg, according to Auman, but fortunately, his X-rays came back normal, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports. The second-year-pro will still have to undergo an MRI later Thursday, so he's not fully out of the woods yet. If the injury is of any significance it'll be a fairly tough blow to the Bucs defense, with Diaby expected to have a starting role in the team's linebacker unit coming off a strong rookie campaign.

Impact The rookie third-round pick opened the season in a rotational role, but he eventually took over the starting weak-side linebacker job from Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. Diaby displayed a knack for getting to the quarterback, and 4.5 of his sacks came from Week 11 on. Diaby is likely to enter training camp as the favorite to continue in the starting role, and if he succeeds in retaining the top spot in the depth chart, he could enjoy a true IDP breakout season in 2024.
