The Bucks were back outside for practice on Thursday, and there were some notable updates to the team’s injury report. Starting with some good news, quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) is back in full capacity and appears to be on track to play. Mayfield appeared to be having a good stretch with an offensive line that included the always energetic Nick Leverett.

It is also notable that cornerback Carlton Davis (ankle) has been promoted to full participation after being restricted on Wednesday. But it wasn’t all good news for the Bucks on the injury front.
Wide receiver Chris Godwin has become a hot topic. Thursday Pewter Report Podcast, and after being added with a neck injury he was limited. His stats are remarkable, as is his ability to take his game up a notch.
Inside linebacker continues to be an area where head coach Todd Bowles’ defense will quickly test its depth. Lavonte David (groin) and Servosia Dennis (illness) were absent, and Devin White (foot) also practiced on a separate field without warming up. Tampa Bay could be without both starters on Sunday, as each of its top three inside linebackers has question marks.

The statuses of defensive lineman Mike Green (calf), outside linebacker Yaya Diaby (ankle) and cornerback Jamel Dean (ankle) remained unchanged. Neither Green nor Dean were seen on the field, but Diaby was seen sprinting during the team’s warm-ups, although he was limited. Regardless of who is eligible, the Bucks’ next game against the Panthers is likely to be one where they have to hope for another defensive player to step up in place of a key contributor.
