This was White’s first chance to see the Bucks’ new “three-headed monster” with Rathard White, Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker back in the lineup. They all certainly had an impact on the game Tampa Bay gained 92 yards from the back three against Baltimore and went for 125 yards. White also ranked second on the team in receiving, with six catches for 71 yards and two scores.
The amount of snap was fairly evenly distributed. White led the Bucs with 48% of snaps, but Irving and Tucker weren’t far behind at 35% and 20%, respectively. White had 10 rushing attempts, compared to five each for Irving and Tucker. White led the league with 40 rushing yards, while Tucker averaged the highest yards per attempt at 5.8 and Irving averaged the highest yards per catch at 18. All of the back three have played their roles well, which is a great sign for what’s to come. All three will be needed due to injuries to wide receivers.

It was a devastating night for the Bucks. spacious reception room It’s not just this game. Mike Evans aggravated a hamstring injury and was sent off in the second inning after writhing in pain after an incomplete pass. Evans was able to leave on his own, but the situation looked bad.
To make matters worse, Chris Godwin was tackled with less than a minute left in the game, putting the Bucs down by 10 points and sustaining a serious ankle injury. Initial reports said Godwin dislocated his ankle. He was placed in an air cast and had to be carried from the field on a cart. He is likely to be out for the rest of the year.
Because it happened late in the game, Godwin’s snap percentage remained at 85%. Evans only played 28% of the time due to a hamstring injury. Initially, Jalen McMillan was the third wide receiver alongside Evans and Godwin when they were available, but after Evans left, it was Trey Palmer who played the most. In the end, Mr. Palmer got 72% and Mr. McMillan 60%. Sterling Shepard played 45% despite being the most productive of the three the previous week.
With backup tight end Payne Durham out, rookie Devin Culp made his NFL debut. He didn’t play much, appearing only briefly, with backup tackle Justin Skule also coming in as an extra blocker. Cade Otton played typical on 98% of the snaps and led the Bucs with eight catches for 100 yards, despite taking some tough hits throughout.

Jordan Whitehead usually plays close to 100%, but he ended up only playing 75%. This was a surprise. That was his second-lowest total of the season, other than Week 5’s game against Atlanta, where he played 69%, but he left that game early with an injury. He played the entire game. Tykie Smith also left the game with a concussion, so his numbers also dropped. In the end, he played 24% and backup nickel Christian Isien played 17%.
Another surprise in this game was that outside linebacker Yaya Diaby didn’t instantly lead the Bucs’ outside linebackers. In fact, Joe Tryon Soyinka came in second with 66%, followed by Diaby with 59%. Anthony Nelson played about the same as Diaby at 61%, but then Christian Braswell took a big leap forward, playing 36% of the snaps.
Diaby recorded five tackles and a sack. JTS recorded four tackles and two tackles for loss. Nelson had two tackles, one of which went to Braswell.
Kariya Kanshi was the Bucs’ main player at defensive tackle, playing 73% of the snaps. This was the seventh-most among defensemen and definitely the most among defensive tackles. Vere Vere’s 64% was similar to his normal numbers, Ernest Brown played a significant amount of snaps at 27%, which was slightly less than Greg Gaines (34%), and Will Golston. (19%). Brown found his way in the Bucs’ defensive line rotation.
