Buccaneers Activate RT Luke Goedeke From IR Ahead of Patriots Game

His return restores Tampa Bay’s tackle tandem to bolster protection for Baker Mayfield.

Overview

  • Tampa Bay moved Luke Goedeke to the 53-man roster on Saturday after he progressed from limited work to a full practice during the week.
  • The activation ends a six-game absence that began with a Week 2 foot aggravation and an IR placement on Sept. 18.
  • He is eligible for Week 10 at New England and is expected to play, reuniting with left tackle Tristan Wirfs to bookend the line for the first time this season.
  • To create space, the Buccaneers waived safety Sebastian Castro, and they elevated linebackers Nick Jackson and Mohamed Kamara from the practice squad.
  • Linebackers Haason Reddick and Markees Watts were ruled out for Sunday, and the 6-2 Bucs seek steadier protection and run-game leverage for Mayfield.
