Week 5 Overview

Egbuka should run as Tampa Bay’s top receiver this week. The Bucs lost Mike Evans to a hamstring injury last week, and Chris Godwin -- assuming he plays -- will be seeing his first game action since dislocating an ankle last October. Philly’s defense has looked vulnerable through three weeks, though CB Quinyon Mitchell and CB Cooper DeJean still present tough individual matchups when Egbuka draws them in coverage.

Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (hip, groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Jets. He was listed as questionable after getting in just a limited practice on Friday. We got conflicting reports on Egbuka this morning, with NFL Network’s Rapoport saying he’ll have “no limitations” but ESPN’s Adam Schefter reporting that Egbuka “is expected to have his snaps monitored and potentially limited based on how he feels during the game.” We’re siding with Schefter here considering this is a rookie who barely practiced this week. That has Egbuka sitting in low-end WR3 territory in the Week 3 rankings.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (hip, groin) "is expected to have his snaps monitored and potentially limited based on how he feels during the game." So we have a good old fashioned report-off between Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, who said that Egbuka will play "with no limitations" vs. the Jets. Frankly, Schefter's report makes more sense considering Egbuka is a rookie who got in just one limited practice this week. We'll look for more clarity on the situation. But, for now, consider Egbuka a risk/reward WR3 in fantasy lineups.

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (ankle) has a "strong chance" to make his 2025 debut against the Eagles in Week 4, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That'd be a little ahead of the "Week 5 or later" timeline we'd most recently heard for Godwin. He's been practicing on a limited basis for the last two weeks. Schefter also says there's a " strong chance" LT Tristan Wirfs makes it back for Week 4. That'd be as big a boost to this offense as Godwin's return (maybe bigger).
