Buccaneers Antoine Winfield Jr Injury Update

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers overcame several turnovers to defeat the Las Vegas Raiders 28-13 on Sunday to take over first place in the NFC South. Unfortunately one of their key players on defense left the game with an injury. Early in the game All-Pro safety Antoine Winfield Jr left with an knee injury. Monday at head coach Todd Bowles’ press conference he updated Winfield Jr’s status.

Via Fox Sports Greg Auman,

“Bowles says Antoine Winfield has a sprained knee (fixed) and will miss “a couple” of games.”

The 2024 season has been brutal for Winfield Jr in regards to injuries. The All-Pro safety has missed time with a foot, a calf and now knee injury. This report that Winfield Jr will miss “a couple” of games just further hampers the Pewter Pirates defense as it prepares for the playoff push.
