Star wide receiver Chris Godwin is expected to start practicing week two against the Houston Texans and should be ready to play by week 4 against the Eagles, the team announced Thursday.

Jalen McMillan is set to miss time for the Buccaneers after suffering a neck strain. Here's how long the team can expect to be without the WR.

McMillan jumped in an attempt to make a catch in the first quarter of Saturday's preseason game with the Pittsburgh Steelers when he was undercut by Steelers defensive back Daryl Porter, causing McMillan to land on the back of his head with his body folding awkwardly.

Emeka Egbuka has been turning heads this training camp and preseason, and the Bucs get ready for Week 1 in the coming weeks. The team is likely to use him right away, while Chris Godwin Jr. is nursing his ankle back from the injury he suffered in 2024, and now Jalen McMillan is placed on injured reserve.
