AutoDraft Pro AI

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Although Egbuka has cleared the concussion protocol, a lingering foot injury kept him out of Friday's practice and forced him to take a step back in recovery. His absence will elevate Tez Johnson and Ted Hurst into increased snaps and full-time roles alongside veteran slot receiver Chris Godwin, with Egbuka eyeing a Week 9 return.
