Julio Jones, Mike Evans upgraded to limited participants on Tuesday injury report.

Both players were listed as DNP on Monday so this is an upgrade ahead of this week's Thursday night game. Jones hasn't played since Week 4. Jones is dealing with a knee issue while Evans has an ankle injury.

Julio Jones joined Chris Godwin on the sideline Thursday afternoon, and now it's possible the team will be without their top-three receiver options on Sunday, with Mike Evans serving a one-game suspension.

Tom Brady is going to have an uphill battle in Week 3 with Gage, Beasley, and some rotation of Breshad Perriman, Scotty Miller, and Cameron Brate operating as his receiving options. It's as if he's back in his final years with the Patriots. Brady is ranked as a borderline QB1/2 this week with Russell Gage likely having the highest ceiling in Sunday's matchup against the Packers.

The NFL upheld Mike Evans’ one-game suspension for hitting Saints’ CB Marshon Lattimore. Evans is now officially out for Sunday’s game vs. the Green Bay Packers.

Evans appealed the suspension but will still have to sit for Week 3. The Bucs could be hurting a bit at WR when they take on the Packers. Goodwin is dealing with a hamstring injury and doesn't look like he'll play. Jones was reportedly close to playing Week 2 and is still dealing with a knee injury. Gage, Perriman and Miller would be up next on the depth chart.

The NFL is not anticipating a ruling on Mike Evans’ appeal of a one-game suspension Tuesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Former NFL receiver James Thrash heard Evans’ appeal Tuesday.

It seems likely a decision will come Wednesday as the Bucs begin their on-field work for Sunday’s game against the Packers.

Evans got a running start and shoved Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore to the ground after Lattimore chirped at Tom Brady and bowed up on running back Leonard Fournette. It set off a brawl. The decision was supposed to be made Tuesday. The Bucs could be without Evans and Christ Godwin (hamstring) in Week 3.

Mike Evans ragdolled longtime foe Marshon Lattimore en route to being thrown out of Sunday's game, and now his actions are under review from league officials.

"It gets spicy when you come to New Orleans," Evans was later quoted as saying. The wide receiver was previously suspended for one game in the 2017 season for getting in an altercation with —you guessed it— Marshon Lattimore, and it would come as no surprise if that were the same outcome this time around. There's no guarantee that the suspension would take place immediately, but Evans being off the field would impact Russell Gage, Chris Godwin, Julio Jones, and anyone else healthy enough to play in the receiver room.

Buccaneers WR Mike Evans and Saints CB Marshon Lattimore were ejected from Sunday's game for fighting.

The scuffle began after Leonard Fournette went after Lattimore who jarred a bit with Tom Brady. Evans came sprinting from the sideline and shoved Lattimore to the ground and the teams all met in the middle of the field as the refs tried to take control. Both Evans and Lattimore were sent to the locker room and given offsetting penalties. The Bucs will now rely heavily on Scotty Miller and Russell Gage, who have both stepped up very well thus far today, though the Bucs only have three points on the board.

I asked Todd Bowles today if he had any injury concerns at receiver other than Chris Godwin, and he said he did not. Keep that in mind when reading Bucs’ injury report.

Godwin is of course dealing with a hamstring issue and doesn't seem likely to play. But now Jones is dealing with a knee issue and Gage a hamstring as well. Evans, we reported today, had his calf wrapped. This is a situation to watch heading into Week 2.

Following up on this...it’s a calf injury for Mike Evans.

Laine went on to tweet it sounds relatively minor for Evans. The Bucs are already expected to be without Chris Godwin so Julio Jones and Russell Gage could be factors in Week 2 if Evans is limited in any way.

No WR Chris Godwin or LT Donovan Smith at practice today.

The Bucs said Godwin's hamstring injury wasn't as serious as first thought, but the team never put a specific timetable on his return. Reports say he's likely going to be out for Week 2, but the good news he didn't reinjure his ACL. The Bucs will go with Evans, Jones and Gage as their top-three WRs for Week 2.

Chris Godwin suffered a hamstring strain during Sunday Night Football, but it would seem that his reconstructed knee came out of the game fine.

Those willing to play Godwin in Week 1 were stuck with a 3-35-0 line while both teammates Mike Evans and Julio Jones had at least 69 yards, with the former finding the end zone. The Buccaneers were able to cruise to a win on SNF as the Cowboys only scored three points, but matchups in the next few weeks —namely, the Packers in Week 3 and Chiefs in Week 4— could provide some firepower for the ancillary pieces of Godwin is still sidelined.
