Preliminary testing points to dehydration pending further evaluation.

Overview

  • Team medical staff treated Peete on the field during Wednesday’s walk-through before he was transported for additional tests, and the club said he was responsive and coherent.
  • Todd Bowles called the incident very scary and said Peete was doing fine as testing continued with dehydration indicated in early results.
  • Players gathered around and took a knee during the response, and Baker Mayfield said Peete was alert afterward and even making jokes.
  • The Buccaneers have not released a definitive diagnosis and said they will provide more information when available.
  • Tampa Bay continues preparations for Sunday’s game at Seattle with other health concerns in play, including running back Bucky Irving’s day-to-day ankle and foot issues.
