The Buccaneers have agreed to terms with veteran WR Sterling Shepard on a one-year deal. Following eight seasons with the Giants, who drafted him in the second round in 2016, Shepard reunites with his former Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield in Tampa.

Fantasy Impact:

Shepard adds some depth to the wide receiver room as they head into the summer months but will have a difficult time producing in fantasy if he makes the final roster.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield dealing with ankle injury

Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield was able to finish Sunday’s game against the Colts despite suffering an ankle injury in the first quarter.

It sounds like Mayfield will be able to play this week’s game against the Panthers, too.

Fantasy Impact:

Head coach Todd Bowles told reporters in his Monday press conference that Mayfield’s MRI was negative, which is a positive outcome for the QB. Owners should keep any eye on Mayfield's status this week as there's a good chance he'll at least be limited. For now, he appears to have a good chance to play in Week 13.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (knee) and WR Chris Godwin (neck) — both listed as questionable — will play tonight against the Bills.

DT Vita Vea (groin) is also questionable and will be a true game-day decision.

Fantasy Impact:

Good news for the Buccaneers offense in general, but Mayfield doesn't need to be in consideration for a fantasy start this week. Godwin can be considered a WR2.
