Time for the second injury report of the week for the Buccaneers’ game against the Raiders.
More from The Pewter Plank
Preparations for Sunday afternoon continue for the Buccaneers. The Raiders come to town this weekend as the Bucs are looking to continue their solid play and eclipse the .500 mark for the first time since week one.
The Raiders enter the game posing a true test for Mike Smith‘s defense, boasting the fifth best scoring offense in football with a 26.4 points per game average.
Derek Carr is having a fantastic season to date, throwing 13 touchdown passes versus only three interceptions.
As we move ahead, let’s look at the Thursday injury report. First for the Bucs:

Robert Ayers | 91 | DE | Ankle | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |

Doug Martin | 22 | RB | Hamstring | Did Not Participate | Did Not Participate |

The Bucs are still the healthiest they have been since week one of the season. Yes, Gerald McCoy hit the list today, practicing only on a limited basis, and obviously we will monitor the situation when the game statuses come out tomorrow. Other than Dougie, looks like the team is coming back together.
Now here is the Raiders’ report:

Vadal Alexander | 74 | G/T | Ankle | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |
Andre Holmes | 18 | WR | Hip | Limited Participation | Limited Participation |
