TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS NEWS

Devin White - Tackle drop-off in Week 3 White generated five tackles (three solo) during the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers in Week 3.

Impact The standout linebacker had collected a whopping 19 stops, including three sacks, over the first two contests of the season, so Week 3 marked what would qualify as a sub-par performance by White's lofty standards. However, the fourth-year pro naturally remains an elite IDP option and could well boost his numbers right back up in a Week 4 showdown against the Chiefs.

Antoine Winfield Jr. - Records six tackles in Week 3 Winfield furnished six tackles (all solo) in the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers in Week 3.

Impact Winfield finished third on the team in tackles, although unlike the first two games of the season, he was unable to produce any other stats besides the stops. Nevertheless, the versatile safety is off to a great start from an IDP perspective, having already compiled 19 tackles, a sack and an interception heading into what should be another busy afternoon in a Week 4 showdown against the Chiefs.

Lavonte David - Tallies seven tackles in Week 3 David collected seven tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Packers.

Impact David and the rest of the Buccaneers' defense was able to hold Green Bay scoreless after halftime, but the team ultimately fell just short from starting the season 3-0. It's also worth noting that the 11-year pro played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in Week 3, and he'll once again be up for a challenge Sunday night when the Chiefs come to town.

Mike Edwards - Gathers team-high 13 tackles Sunday Edwards recorded 13 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Packers.

Impact Edwards' 13 tackles was a key reason why the Buccaneers defense was able to hold Aaron Rodgers and the Packers' offense scoreless after halftime, but it wasn't quite enough to obtain the victory in Week 3. The fourth-year safety played every defensive snap Sunday, and he'll look to continue his impressive efforts when Tampa Bay hosts the Chiefs on Sunday night.

Jaelon Darden - Flashes with one catch Darden secured his only target for 25 yards and returned three punts for 26 yards in the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Impact Darden logged a season-high 18 snaps from scrimmage with the Buccaneers down three receivers, and he flashed his speed on his one reception by getting upfield down the right sideline for a 25-yard gain. He also continued to put in his usual strong work on special teams, now averaging an impressive 8.9 yards per punt return on his eight runbacks. Despite the splash play on offense, Darden could be back to minimal involvement from scrimmage in Week 4 if at least Mike Evans (suspension) and Julio Jones (knee) return as expected.

Ryan Succop - Solid showing in low-scoring loss Succop made a pair of field-goal attempts of 45 yards apiece and did not attempt any extra points in the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Impact Succop made the most of his scant opportunities Sunday, managing to produce a serviceable six-point tally for fantasy managers with another strong day on field goals. The Buccaneers' offense didn't provide Succop anywhere near the usual number of chances to put points on the board, and Tampa Bay went for two points after its sole touchdown with 14 seconds remaining in the game. Succop's outlook for a Week 4 showdown against the Chiefs is seemingly much brighter, considering the Buccaneers project to have Mike Evans (suspension) and Julio Jones (knee) back, at minimum, to shore up the receiving corps.

Kyle Rudolph - One catch in season debut Rudolph brought in his only target for 12 yards in the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Impact The veteran tight end was active for the first time this season with rookie Cade Otton (personal) out of action, and he was able to make good use of the one pass thrown his way. Rudolph logged only nine snaps overall despite the Buccaneers being short-handed at tight end, and he's likely to revert to inactive status as early as Week 4 if Otton is back with the team for the home showdown against the Chiefs.

Rachaad White - Only touch comes via special teams White did not log a carry or target in the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers on Sunday but did return one kickoff for 20 yards.

Impact White seemingly had the potential to log a few extra touches while spelling Leonard Fournette, who is still dealing with a hamstring injury, but the latter played 91 percent of the offensive snaps Sunday. In contrast, White was in on just six snaps from scrimmage and another 10 on special teams. Head coach Todd Bowles seems content to give Fournette a true lead-back workload thus far, keeping White as a non-factor for fantasy purposes thus far in his nascent career.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scotty Miller - Does little with opportunity Miller brought in just one of five targets for four yards in the Buccaneers' 14-12 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Impact Miller played a robust 52 snaps from scrimmage with the Buccaneers down three receivers, yet as his final line implies, he largely squandered the opportunity. The Bowling Green product certainly brings plenty of speed to the table, but with just a 9-76 line on 22 targets over his last 11 regular-season games overall, Miller is unlikely to make any sort of impact whenever the team's receiving corps is even approximating full health.

Mike Evans - Reinstated following suspension Evans' suspension was lifted Monday.

Impact Evans' one-game suspension was upheld following an appeal, so he sat out the team's Week 3 loss to the Packers for his altercation with the Saints' Marshon Lattimore in Week 2. The veteran wideout's return should be a welcome sight for Tom Brady, who struggled against Green Bay without his top three pass catchers. Evans has caught eight of 11 targets for 132 yards and a score through his first two appearances of the season.

Julio Jones - Expected back in Week 4 Coach Todd Bowles is optimistic that Jones (knee) will return in Week 4 against the Chiefs, as Jones was healthy enough to play in Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Packers but was held o...

Impact The Buccaneers took the long-term view with Jones in Week 3, but the 33-year-old wide receiver is expected to make his return for Tampa Bay's high-profile Week 4 game. Tom Brady struggled to move the ball against Green Bay while working with a depleted receiving corps, but he'll be getting some major reinforcements in Week 4 with Mike Evans returning from his one-game suspension alongside Jones.

Breshad Perriman - Fumbles in loss Perriman caught three of four targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Packers.

Impact Perriman failed to really take advantage of Tampa Bay being without its top three wide receivers, as a fumble halted his team's momentum prior to halftime. Although he's topped 40 yards in consecutive weeks, Perriman could see his involvement decrease with Mike Evans set to return from suspension in Week 4, and Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) representing potential further reinforcements.
