Two Receivers Land On Injury Report
September 7th, 2021This is a mildly troubling.
Today is the equivalent of Friday during normal week with a Sunday game. That means the Bucs had their final practice of the week today with a game just two days away.
Antonio Brown, who had offseason knee surgery, did not practice today. He was listed on the official injury report with a knee injury.
Chris Godwin also debuted on the injury report after a “limited” participation practice because of a quad injury.
Joe’s not concerned about facing the Cowboys. Long term is where Joe’s mind is going, especially for Brown. It’s never a good sign to be entering a season dinged up.

Hoping this (announcement) is Belichickian in nature.
September 7th, 2021 at 3:42 pm
Brown tweaked his knee earlier, so perhaps this is more precaution and rest than aggravation of a preexisting condition.
September 7th, 2021 at 3:42 pm
This last minute stuff is troubling.
September 7th, 2021 at 3:43 pm
The Bucs’ receiving corps is deep. So I am not worried.
September 7th, 2021 at 3:51 pm
I don’t feel the Bucs are deep enough to absorb the loss of both Godwin & Brown. I have flashbacks of Mickens running for his life vs the Giants last year. Brown is the X Factor…scored twice in the playoffs last year and might be Brady’s favorite receiver. Might be…

AB and Godwin are warriors. Played hurt most of the year.
Plus, Evans, Miller, Johnson, Gronk … we’re okay.

Defending their super bowl season
Opening week vs “americas team”
Both Get some exposure
Both AB and Godwin looking for next big payday.
Both will play. Trust me.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:06 pm
They’ll both play, Godwin “quad”
Lower right back quadrant
September 7th, 2021 at 4:12 pm
OMG!
The perfectly laid plans are crumbling.
Call off all bets.
I know a lot of you guys had this win penciled in as a sure thing.
Probably had a party when you heard Zach Martin wasn’t gonna play too.
Get a grip.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:12 pm
EXTRA, EXTRA. Read all about it. Nothing to see here folks, move along. All is well.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:14 pm
Just countering the Cowboys and their sudden problems, the ones getting all the pub.
They both get 100yds and a TD Thurs.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:18 pm
Injuries are never a good thing, but the Bucs have a lot of depth at WR, and they can always go with more 2 TE formations if needed, so this is not terribly concerning.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:19 pm
Steven
Exactly. Let the games begin.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:22 pm
Quad doesn’t equal Hammy does it?
September 7th, 2021 at 4:22 pm
And this is what I’ve been talking about. Karma. Get excited about opponent’s players unable to play and bam! All of a sudden some of our key players are out. Fortunately our depth, particularly at WR, should carry the day.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:23 pm
We might not get past game one without being very, very grateful we have Gio Bernard……you see….he’s not just there to be an alternative to elite receivers….he’s there to be a Brady option when those receivers aren’t there.
September 7th, 2021 at 4:35 pm
Not surprised about Godwin. He took a big shot in the back in the useless Texans game.
September 7th, 2021 at 5:38 pm
Both will play I’m sure.
Just a procedural listing most likely…..
September 7th, 2021 at 5:40 pm
I think we’ll probably see Arian’s pacing our stacked positions all season just so we can make it to the end.
September 7th, 2021 at 6:19 pm
Biff,
I know, that was a helluva hit he took in the back.
September 7th, 2021 at 6:24 pm
Ain’t no big thang. Much trust in TJ if they don’t play so we’ll see. Maybe see a little Darden action?
September 7th, 2021 at 7:20 pm
This is just the type adversity needed to test the metal of our Super Bowl Champions very early to start the new season…is this a step up to the plate moment or what! Beam me up Scottie ….Go Bucs!
September 7th, 2021 at 7:30 pm
I thought AB’s knee was completely fixed up with the surgery. I was very surprised to see him on the injury list. Isn’t there a timetable on when they can return to a game after being placed on that list?
September 7th, 2021 at 7:40 pm
@Steven007
“Belichickian”
Did you make that up yourself?
I like it!
Mind if I borrow it sometime (I have no idea when)
September 7th, 2021 at 10:42 pm
Godwin quad was injured yesterday by a hit he took on his back two Saturdays again? That makes sense.
September 8th, 2021 at 1:34 am
So long as Brady is playing, we’ll make the playoffs.
September 8th, 2021 at 3:57 am
Johnson in the slot!
September 8th, 2021 at 9:29 pm
It would help AB if he also was not nuts
September 9th, 2021 at 5:48 pm
That’s just more tuddys for the Gronkster
