Tampa Bay Buccaneers news, rumors and injuriesBuccaneers | O.J. Howard finding a rhythm Sun, 20 Aug 2017 19:31:04 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE O.J. Howard showed improved chemistry with QB Jameis Winston during practice Sunday, Aug. 20, according to Mark Cook of PewterReport.com. Fantasy Tip: Howard has loads of long-term potential, but the Buccaneers have several weapons in the passing game, including tight end Cameron Brate. Howard is a must-own option in dynasty formats, but he doesn't need to be owned in redraft leagues.

Comment () | Share: Buccaneers | Brent Grimes suffered nasty cut on leg Fri, 18 Aug 2017 11:22:23 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Brent Grimes (shin) required 20 stitches to close a laceration on his right shin suffered during an exhibition game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday, Aug. 17. Comment () | Share: Buccaneers | Mike Evans catches five passes Thu, 17 Aug 2017 20:31:49 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans caught five passes for 57 yards in the preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars Thursday, Aug. 17. Fantasy Tip: Evans finished in the top six in receptions (96), receiving yards (1,321) and touchdowns (12) in 2016 and will continue to be one of the top receivers in the NFL. He will be a No. 1 fantasy receiver in all leagues and likely will be a first- or second-round pick in drafts. Comment () | Share: Buccaneers | Doug Martin finds end zone Thu, 17 Aug 2017 20:19:07 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Doug Martin rushed for 30 yards and one touchdown on five carries in the preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars Thursday, Aug. 17. Fantasy Tip: Martin will miss the first three games of the regular season because of a suspension, so it is not known what his role will be when he returns. He has a chance to be a No. 2 fantasy running back if he is the starter when he returns from his suspension. Comment () | Share: Buccaneers | Jameis Winston has solid outing Thu, 17 Aug 2017 20:07:29 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Jameis Winston went 21-for-29 for 196 yards in the preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars Thursday, Aug. 17. Fantasy Tip: Winston is coming off a solid 2016 season when he is 4,090 yards and 28 touchdowns and should be able to improve on those stats. He will have new options to throw to this season in DeSean Jackson and O.J. Howard, which will help his fantasy status. He probably should be considered a low-end No. 1 quarterback in most leagues. Comment () | Share: Buccaneers | O.J. Howard to focus mostly on blocking? Tue, 15 Aug 2017 09:05:50 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE O.J. Howard will most likely make his mark as a blocker - and not a receiver - early in the season, according to ESPN.com's Jenna Laine. Fantasy Tip: Howard will likely be a Pro Bowl tight end in years to come, but he is getting overdrafted, perhaps in part due to the solid rookie year enjoyed by Hunter Henry in 2016. The Bucs want to run the ball first and foremost, while Mike Evans, DeSean Jackson and Cameron Brate give Jameis Winston a solid trio of options in the passing game. Owners should be able to ignore Howard in redrafts, as he will likely be available off waivers by the time Tampa Bay is ready for him to make a fantasy impact.

Comment () | Share: Buccaneers | Jude Adjei-Barimah heading to IR Mon, 14 Aug 2017 04:41:58 -0700 Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Jude Adjei-Barimah (knee) will head to injured reserve with a patellar fracture in his right knee. It was feared Adjei-Barimah would miss at least four months due to this injury.
