The Bucs had more players return for Thursday’s practice as several players on the team battle through illnesses. Those players consisted of running back Bucky Irving and cornerback Zyon McCollum, who each were upgraded to limited after missing practice the day before. Defensive tackle Calijah Kancey was also an upgrade, moving up to a full participant.

What really needs to be monitored is the status of wide receiver Emeka Egbuka and right tackle Luke Goedeke. Egbuka hasn’t been seen at practice, and considering that he is on the injury report with a foot injury, and more importantly for a concussion, it doesn’t seem likely that he’ll play on Sunday.

Goedeke has at least been in the locker room, and has more of a chance to go during Friday’s practice, but that’s not a guarantee either. It would be a big help to have the entire starting offensive line ready with quarterback Baker Mayfield returning.

Here’s the full injury report for the Bucs and Panthers ahead of their divisional matchup.
