Buccaneers get WRs back to practice Monday

Pro Football Talk

Sep 07 · 3:09 PM EDT

Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles told reporters last week that receivers Emeka Egbuka and Jalen McMillan were “headed in the right direction” as they deal with their respective injuries.

Both players took a step forward to start the week.

According to multiple reporters on the scene, Egbuka and McMillan both returned to practice on Monday — a positive sign for their Week 1 availability.

Related players: Chris Godwin, Tez Johnson, Ted Hurst

Fantasy Impact:

Egbuka has been dealing with a toe injury, while McMillan has a knee injury. It makes for a big impact on the Bucs WR depth chart as Egbuka is considered the team's WR1 and McMillan is in the mix for the WR3 spot with Johnson and the rookie Hurst, who is coming off a great camp and offseason.

Buccaneers expect WR Ted Hurst III to play role this season

Ted Hurst III has progressed from a future-focused prospect into a player expected to have a role this year

Related players: Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin, Jalen McMillan, Tez Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

Jason Licht was quoted in the story as saying Hurst has proven himself throughout camp and OTAs. Once thought of as a future prospect, the Bucs now believe they can use him this season, and he's going to play a role. Hurst has had a very positive summer when it comes to press. He was only a later-round option in dynasty leagues this past spring, and while he still may be off the radar in typical redraft leagues, it's easy to see how he can earn some time behind Egbuka and Godwin this season.

Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka unlikely to return before Week 1

Emeka Egbuka traveled to Jacksonville with the team this week but is resting his toe injury. I’d be surprised if we see him next week. Focus is on having him back for Week 1 vs. Bengals.

Related Players: Chris Godwin, Jalen McMillan, Tez Johnson, Ted Hurst

Fantasy Impact:

Tampa Bay appears to be deliberately preserving Egbuka for Week 1, but his prolonged absence adds some draft-day uncertainty. The previous favorable diagnosis prevents an aggressive downgrade, though his participation in team drills will be important next week. Godwin would receive the clearest target boost if Egbuka is unavailable or limited, while Johnson, Hurst, and the Buccaneers’ other depth receivers could receive additional reps.

Bucs Beat: WR Ted Hurst 'silver lining' in joint practice Tuesday

Adam Slivon on X

Aug 25 · 1:18 PM EDT

Bucs WR Ted Hurst has been the silver lining of the offense’s joint practice against the Jaguars so far this morning.

Related players: Chris Godwin, Emeka Egbuka, Jalen McMillan

Fantasy Impact:

According to the post, Hurst had a big touchdown catch and a couple of nice grabs. Slivon added Hurst is making the most of his chances on the first-team with no Egbuka or McMillan. This isn't the first report we've had on Hurst this summer. Hurst was a later-round option in dynasty league drafts this offseason, but his value seems to be going up. He'll likely be capped as the team's WR3 when everyone is healthy, but the Buc WRs have had their share of injuries over the past year. Hurst is a name to keep track of leading up to drafts.
