Mike Evans A Risky Flex Play In Week 17

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has been one of the most disappointing fantasy players in 2022. Coming off another subpar performance in Sunday's 19-16 victory over the Arizona Cardinals, it's becoming almost impossible to trust him as fantasy managers head into championship week. Evans caught three of eight targets for a measly 29 […]

Chris Godwin A Strong WR2 For Week 17

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin continues to be one of the most consistent fantasy players in the NFL. In Sunday's 19-16 victory over the Arizona Cardinals, the Tampa Bay wideout saw another 10 targets giving him 126 on the season, making him one of the leaders at his position. He secured eight of […]

Ryan Succop Perfect, Drills Game-Winning Field Goal In OT

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop drilled all four field goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Arizona Cardinals. In Sunday's victory, he connected from 38, 35, 42, and 40 yards. Tom Brady led the Bucs' offense to a 66-yard drive to set up Succop for the game-winning field […]

Cade Otton Targeted Seven Times In OT Win Over Cardinals

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton caught two of seven targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals. The Bucs' rookie tight end surprisingly was fourth on the team with seven targets, but he could only reel in two of them. Otton is in a timeshare with Cameron Brate […]

Russell Gage Catches Five Passes In OT Win Over Arizona

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage caught five of six targets for 65 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win against the Arizona Cardinals. Despite Julio Jones (knee) being active for Sunday's contest, Gage was second in receiving yards behind Leonard Fournette and third in catches. Most of his damage came from a critical 23-yard […]

Mike Evans Limited To Three Catches In OT Win

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans secured three of eight targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals. The 29-year-old was third on the team but could only reel in three of them. Despite the inefficiency, the veteran caught two passes for 24 yards in overtime when it mattered […]

Chris Godwin Catches Eight Passes In OT Win

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin caught eight of 10 targets for 63 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals. He tied running back Leonard Fournette for the team lead with 10 targets but was third in receiving yards. Godwin has caught at least eight passes in four of the last […]

Leonard Fournette Accumulates 162 Total Yards In OT Win

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette rushed for 72 yards on 20 attempts while catching nine of 10 targets for 90 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Rachaad White Finds The End Zone In OT Win Over Cardinals

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie running back Rachaad White rushed seven times for 36 yards and brought in all four targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Tom Brady Leads Bucs Over Cardinals In OT Win

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady completed 32-of-48 passes for 281 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Arizona Cardinals. The Bucs' offense struggled in the first three quarters, scoring six points. Tampa Bay's offense showed signs of life in the fourth quarter when Brady connected with rookie running […]

Josh Wells Done For Rest Of Week 16

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive tackle Josh Wells (knee) won't return to Sunday's meeting with the Arizona Cardinals. The 31-year-old injured his knee in the first half and was taken off the field on a cart. The Bucs offensive line has been banged up periodically throughout the 2022-23 campaign, which isn't ideal for 45-year-old Tom Brady […]
