Now that we are just about two weeks in, it's time to take a look and see who […]

Chase McLaughlin Knocks Down Two Kicks

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin was given a chance to win the starting gig in camp after an impressive season in 2022.

Cade Otton Catches All Six Targets

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was much more involved during Week 2 than he was in the season opener. The young tight end hauled in all six of his targets for 41 yards in the win over the Chicago Bears. It appears Otton is the third option in the passing attack behind Mike […]

Chris Godwin Remains Involved

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin didn't have a jaw-dropping performance, but was still able to contribute on Sunday.

He also added on five receptions for 30 additional yards in […]

Mike Evans Explodes For Over 170 Yards

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans made easy work of the Chicago Bears secondary on Sunday. The veteran wideout has quickly built chemistry with new quarterback Baker Mayfield.

Baker Mayfield Throws For Over 300 Yards

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield decided to air it out versus the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The former No. 1 overall pick had lofty expectations after taking over for Tom Brady under center this season. However, Mayfield has stepped up and delivered through the first two weeks of the season. On Sunday, Mayfield completed […]

Chase Edmonds Done For The Day
