This Sunday, Raymond James Stadium will welcome back the Bucs from a road trip as the team seeks its first win at home since Week 4 over the Philadelphia Eagles. 

After getting off to a 3-1 start this season, with two of those wins coming over the Detroit Lions and the Philadelphia Eagles — the top two seeds in the NFC — Tampa suffered a slew of injuries to key playmakers and had to alter its identity offensively. 

Since returning from the bye week, though, the team is on a 2-0 winning streak and will have a chance to reclaim the top spot in the NFC South if they win versus the Las Vegas Raiders and the Atlanta Falcons lose.

Which Bucs Are Injured?

Yesterday, Bucs’ star rookie Bucky Irving shared that he was feeling good despite sustaining a hip injury against the Carolina Panthers, which was good news for the team considering that he exited last week’s game earlier.

Today, though, wide receiver Trey Palmer popped up on the injury report due to his own hip injury. Offensive coordinator Liam Coen said that although his offense has lacked many deep completions, he would welcome them despite adding the caveat that he won’t force them into the offense. 

Palmer has some of the best deep speed on the Bucs’ roster, so if he’s unable to go, that will likely lower the chances of a deep completion this week for an offense where they’ve already been few and far between.

With that, here is the Bucs injury report after Thursday:

• WR Mike Evans — hamstring/calf — did not participate 
• LB K.J. Britt — ankle — did not participate 
• S Mike Edwards — hamstring — did not participate
• DL Greg Gaines — ankle — full participant
