Latest news

Buccaneer WRs Mike Evans, Emeka Egbuka expected to play on MNF

CBS Sports

Oct 20, 2025 · 5:34 PM EDT

After missing three games with a hamstring injury, Mike Evans will make his return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers lineup on Monday night. Coming into the game with a questionable tag, Evans will be active for the first time in almost a month, sources told CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz.

Furthermore, Emeka Egbuka, who suffered a hamstring injury last week and was also listed as questionable, worked out pregame and will play, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Fantasy Impact:

Evans seemed to have a better chance to play, but now both WRs will go on MNF, giving Mayfield a couple of more weapons in what could be a high-scoring game with the Lions.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (shoulder), WR Chris Godwin (fibula) already out Week 7

Bucs HC Todd Bowles told reporters that RB Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) and Chris Godwin (fibula) are “not in play” for next Monday night’s game against the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

It's disappointing news but it's at least nice to know heading into waivers this week and when the time comes to set your lineup. The hope for Irving is he's back for Week 8, but the Bucs do have a bye in Week 9, so that could also be a factor in any decisions. Neither Godwin or Irving were placed on IR, so the hope is both are back inside of four weeks. The Bucs hope Evans can play this week, but Egbuka is likely out with a hamstring issue. White will get a majority of the touches at RB with Irving out and Tucker will get a share as well - as the Bucs continue to shuffle guys in and out of their lineup.

Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) expected to miss time

Ian Rapoport on X

Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka will miss time with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Egbuka will get an MRI today. Rapoport said the injury doesn't seem as serious as Evans' hamstring injury, but it's looking like he's going to at least miss this week's game against the Lions. The Bucs then play the Saints before their Week 9 bye, so it's very possible we don't see Egbuka until Week 10. Rapoport said Evans is getting closer to a return and Godwin is week to week. Anyone on the Bucs who plays the WR position could be in play for fantasy lineups, at least for Week 7. It was Kam Johnson and Tez Johnson who both stood out with TD catches against the 49ers.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield returns to Thursday practice, Mike Evans, Bucky Irving sidelined

Greg Auman

Lots of updates from Bucs practice:

Not practicing: Mike Evans, Bucky Irving, Jamel Dean, Benjamin Morrison, Christian Izien.

Practicing: Baker Mayfield, Tristan Wirfs, Lavonte David, Chris Godwin, Zyon McCollum, Haason Reddick, Tykee Smith, Logan Hall, Greg Gaines, Charlie Heck, Sterling Shepard.

Fantasy Impact:

As Greg said, lots to take in here, but not a ton of surprises.

As it stands, we're not expecting any positive Week 5 news for Irving or Evans, which locks Godwin, Emeka Egbuka, and Rachaad White into fantasy-friendly roles, while Mayfield should be in low-end QB1 consideration unless he experiences a setback.
