While there’s still several injury storylines going on with the Bucs, most of these players are going on injured reserve. That made practice on Thursday put all sights set on rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, who hadn’t practiced the day before.
The news wasn’t better for the Bucs as Egbuka didn’t practice once again. We’ll see what happens on Friday but it looks like the Bucs might be going with Sterling Shepard as WR2, Ryan Miller as WR3 with Tez Johnson returning to the lineup sharing snaps with Kameron Johnson.
