Buccaneers Rule Out Chris Godwin, Bucky Irving for Week 11 vs. Bills

The decision reflects Tampa Bay's cautious return-to-contact standard after both logged limited practices.

Overview

  • Head coach Todd Bowles announced Friday that the receiver and running back will not play Sunday in Buffalo.
  • Both returned to practice this week in a limited capacity but were not cleared for game action.
  • Bucky Irving is dealing with foot and shoulder injuries, with the shoulder regarded as the larger concern, marking his sixth missed game this season.
  • Chris Godwin remains out with a lingering fibula/ankle issue tied to prior surgeries, bringing his season total to eight missed games.
  • Tampa Bay is 6-3 and leading the NFC South as it prepares for the Bills without two key offensive contributors.
