Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Considered day-to-day
Vea is dealing with a Grade 2 MCL sprain and will have a chance to play in Week 3, after suffering the injury in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Vea was expected to undergo an MRI on Monday, which likely led to this diagnosis. The potentially quick return for the Washington product would be great news for the Buccaneers' defensive front, with Vea being one of the premier run-stoppers in the game. A final verdict on his ability to play in Week 3 against the Broncos probably won't be available until closer to kickoff Sunday though.

Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Has minor groin injury
White sustained a groin injury during Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions but the issue is not considered major, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
White was effectively contained by Detroit on Sunday, rushing just 10 times for 18 yards while securing his only target for five yards. He picked up the groin issue in the first half and was briefly forced off the field, but the starting running back managed to return without missing much time. White's injury doesn't currently seem likely to impact his availability versus the Broncos in Week 3, but he's averaging a paltry 2.0 YPC through two games to begin the 2024 season. If White's groin issue seems to hamper him as a runner in practice this week, Tampa Bay could elect to give Bucky Irving more opportunities on the ground versus Denver.

Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Piles up tackles in victory
Dean notched 10 tackles (seven solo) and a pass defended in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions.
Dean's 10 combined tackles tied a career-high, previously reached in Week 6 of last season, while his pass defended was his first of the season. The Auburn product's performance pushed his season total to 15 combined tackles with a Week 3 matchup against the Broncos on deck.

Buccaneers' Jordan Whitehead: Reaches double-digit tackles
Whitehead recorded 11 tackles (eight solo) and a pass defended in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions.
Whitehead's 11 combined tackles tied a single-game career-high and was just his fourth double-digit tackle game in his seven-year career. He also recorded his tackle for a loss since Week 7 of the 2023 campaign. Next up for the Pittsburgh product and the Buccaneers defense is a Week 3 matchup with the Broncos.

Buccaneers' Vita Vea: May be dealing with MCL sprain
Vea, who suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 20-16 win over Detroit, is believed to be dealing with a sprained MCL, but the Buccaneers have optimism the issue isn't serious, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Vea went down in the second half of Sunday's game and didn't return. He's slated for an MRI on Monday, which should provide clarity about his injury and his status moving forward. If Vea is unable to suit up Week 3 versus Denver, Greg Gaines would likely take over as Tampa Bay's starting nose tackle.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Passing and rushing TD in win
Mayfield completed 12 of 19 passes for 185 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions. He also rushed five times for 34 yards and a touchdown.
Mayfield connected with Chris Godwin for a 41-yard touchdown to put the Buccaneers up by seven in the second quarter, but he threw an interception on his final pass of the first half. The first overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft showed off his underrated mobility with consecutive 11-yard runs in the third quarter, the latter of which culminated in a go-ahead touchdown. Despite Mayfield's modest passing numbers and the inability of Tampa Bay's offensive line to contain Aidan Hutchinson, who sacked Mayfield three times in the first quarter en route to 4.5 sacks overall, Mayfield did enough to lead his team to victory. The Buccaneers are 2-0 heading into a Week 3 home game against the Broncos.

Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Spotted with knee brace
Vea was seen with a brace on his right knee following Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Vea was ruled out early in the second half of Sunday's game due to a knee injury. The 2018 first-round pick will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. Vea's practice participation leading up to Week 3 against the Eagles will be closely monitored, and if he's unable to play, then Greg Gaines would slide into the starting nose tackle spot while C.J. Brewer serves as the backup.

Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Modest showing in Week 2 win
Evans caught three of six targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions.
Evans had just one catch for 16 yards on two first-half targets, as eight of Baker Mayfield's 12 passes before halftime were directed to Chris Godwin. Evans was actually Tampa Bay's leading receiver after halftime but that production didn't amount to much, as the veteran wide receiver cooled off after a two-touchdown Week 1 performance. He has just 103 receiving yards heading into a Week 3 date with a Broncos secondary led by star cornerback Patrick Surtain.

Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Shines early in Week 2 win
Godwin caught seven of eight targets for 117 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions.
Godwin accounted for Baker Mayfield's first seven completions, including a 41-yard touchdown catch. Tampa Bay's passing game slowed down after that, as Mayfield finished with only 185 yards, but the Buccaneers hung on for the win. Godwin has already equaled last season's total of two touchdown catches while racking up exactly 200 receiving yards heading into Week 3 against the Broncos.

Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Bottled up by Lions
White rushed 10 times for 18 yards and caught his only target for five yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Lions.
White exited in the first half due to a groin injury but promptly returned, though it's possible the injury contributed to his inability to find any running room against Detroit's stout front seven. He's off to a painfully slow start on the ground, averaging fewer than 2.0 YPC through two games, with only 49 yards on 25 carries. A Week 3 home game against the Broncos could be just what White needs to get back on track, assuming he's healthy enough to suit up.

The Buccaneers were without Calijah Kancey (calf) for Sunday's game, and they'll now be down another starting defensive lineman in Vea. Greg Gaines will take over for Vea as the primary nose tackle for the rest of the game while C.J. Brewer provides depth.
