Bucs vs. Giants Injury Report: Return of WR Mike Evans?

A large part of the Bucs’ struggles came after they lost superstar wide receiver Mike Evans, but this week, the future Hall of Famer is expected to return to action for the first time since his hamstring injury in Week 7. 

Unfortunately, Evans is far from the only player on this roster dealing with an injury. Star left tackle Tristan Wirfs sustained an injury against the San Francisco 49ers, so his availability is expected to remain up in the air until kickoff.

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

• WR Mike Evans — hamstring — limited participant
• G Ben Bredeson — shoulder — full participant 
• CB Jamel Dean — hamstring — full participant
• DL Greg Gaines — foot — did not participate 
• DL William Gholston — knee — full participant 
• CB Troy Hill — ankle — did not participate 
• RB Bucky Irving — toe — full participant 
• CB Zyon McCollum — hamstring — did not participate 
• WR Jalen McMillan — hamstring — full participant 
• S Tykee Smith — knee — limited participant 
• LT Tristan Wirfs — knee/foot — limited participant
