Tampa Bay Buccaneers injury report has been full of names this whole season. At least it feels that way. And still, they carry a 5-1 record and sit atop the conference despite injuries to key players for
each game so far in 2025.
Heading into Monday Night Football against Detroit, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers revealed yet another stacked injury report on Thursday. Linebacker Lavonte David (knee/rib), running back Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder), wide receiver Chris Godwin, Jr. (fibula), wide receiver Emeka Egbuka (hamstring), guard Luke Haggard (shoulder), running back Josh Williams (concussion), and punter Riley Dixon (personal reasons) all were listed as Did Not Participate in practice.
On a brighter note, veteran receiver Mike Evans made his first appearance back from a hamstring injury, practicing on a limited basis. Meanwhile, cornerback Zyon McCollum (thumb) and cornerback Benjamin Morrison (hamstring) both returned to full participation.
The Buccaneers will have a tough challenge against the Lions as Detroit looks to bounce back from a tough loss in Kansas City last week. Evans’ limited return offers hope, but depth and health will be critical as Tampa Bay seeks to improve on its 5–1 record.
