Bucs vs. Commanders Wildcard Injury Report

The biggest difference between the Bucs in this game compared to Week 1 will be the absence of All-Pro wide receiver Chris Godwin. Luckily, though, this game could feature the return of All-Pro safety Antoine Winfield Jr.

Tampa’s superstar safety entered this season coming off of his best year as a pro. Unfortunately, 2024 limited him to the fewest games of his career (9) as injuries have repeatedly kept him off the field. 

Today, Winfield Jr. was a full participant in practice, which is a promising sign for a player who’s been held back by a knee injury, especially since the team will be without fellow starting safety Jordan Whitehead, whose season was cut short due to injuries sustained in a car accident.

With that, here is the Bucs injury report after Wednesday:

• TE Devin Culp — ribs — full participant 
• LB Lavonte David — knee — limited participant 
• CB Jamel Dean — knee — limited participant 
• S Mike Edwards — quadriceps — limited participant 
• WR Mike Evans — rest — limited participant 
• DL William Gholston — knee — full participant 
• DL Logan Hall — groin — did not participate
