First Bucs Injury Report Released

September 6th, 2023

Injured Anthony Nelson.

After many months of teams not having to produce an official injury report, every club playing on Sunday had to issue one today.

The Bucs’ report was light but it did include a surprise. OLB/edge rusher Anthony Nelson (5 1/2 sacks) landed on the report with a hamstring injury. He was limited in practice. That was the first Joe had heard of Nelson being hurt.

Starting safety Antoine Winfield Jr. (calf) was full-go at practice but on the injury list. He was injured three weeks ago practicing against the Jets in New Jersey. Backup safety Safety Kaevon Merriweather was limited with a quad.

Rookie defensive tackle Calijah Kancey was out of practice with the bad calf that’s kept him from practicing for over a month.

    Sounds like Kancey won’t be ready for Minn. What a disappointment, the guy is way behind and is clearly not getting much better.

    Well this is prob the healthiest we will be all season. Let’s not take it for granite

  3. TonySoprano Says:

    Man it was nearly 6 weeks ago Kancey pulled his calf. And he’s still not even practicing?

  4. ElioT Says:

    No reason to rush Kancey back. Kid has to fully recoup and contribute later in the year.

  5. Dew Says:

    Kancey not ruled out yet for Sunday.

  6. Oddball Says:

    Granite… lol

  7. JimBobBuc Says:

    Too bad Nelson is hurt. He had much fewer plays but more sacks last year than JTS. Hope he can play!

    Would you prefer to take it for marble?

  9. Nprbuc Says:

    Maybe “ take it for granted?” Can’t get by the grammar police on “ this hear log” Oops! 🤪

  10. Bojim Says:

    He shouldn’t be rushed but I’d sure like to see what he can do in a game

  11. BucU Says:

    Kancey is going to get a beat down if and when he comes back. He’s so far behind he’ll be useless I’ll bet all year.

    “Let’s not take it for granite”

    For all intensive purposes, this is a mute point. By in large, I could care less. We are a shoe-in for more injuries and will have to make due.

  13. Derek Says:

    Kancey a bust already.

  14. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    A bit early for that, Derek

    Haha. Well done.

  19. Buc4evr Says:

    So Kancey is a starter on the depth chart and he hasn’t even played one down. What a joke.

  20. Marine Buc Says:

    Stupid – why would Kancey be on the game day 46 roster if he still isn’t practicing?

    So desperate to prove you made the right move?

    Just like Vaughn…

    Foolish pride.

  21. BucsFan81 Says:

    The fact that anyone believes these injury reports smh. By time we get to game day I bet all these guys are cleared to play.

    Really? Have you spoken with the trainers to have the inside knowledge on his injury recovery?

  25. sasquatch Says:

    I swear to kreiste, there is something seriously wrong with you dumbasses drawing conclusions about Kancey already. What the hell is in the water in Florida?

  26. Kgh4life Says:

    Calf injuries are tricky, come back too soon and Kancey will be out longer. Calm down people, it’s a 17 game season.

  27. BillyBucco Says:

    Lol
    So you bring up the taking it for “Granite” and you say “Intensive” purposes lol.
    It’s for all “Intents” and purposes lol.
    Its also I “couldn’t “ care less.
    You guys are suspect.

  28. Sly Pirate Says:

    Kancey, JTS, Hall = Bust
    Evans = Selfish
    Wirfs = Failed Experiment
    D White = Malcontent
    R White = Bad Advanced Stats (WTF?)
    Licht = Sucks

    All I been hearing for the past 3 months. You do know we won the SB and 2xNFCS Champions? Man, Saints fans are more complimentary of the Bucs than some of you fans.

  29. Bud Tugly Says:

    Man, what a A doggie-dog world these comments have become! @BillyBucco – don’t be such a grammar Nietzsche! Are you trying to make me a social leopard for my foe par in misusing words? With baited breath, I’ll be curled up in the feeble position, biting my time until you fail to pass mustard and makes a mistake. Then *you* will become the escape goat when I extract revenge and curve your enthusiasm with my biting replies! You will get your just deserves! You won’t get off scotch free!

    So many over-reactions on Kancey being “so far behind”. This is not his first time playing football and most rookies depend on their athleticism anyway as a rookie. They develop the NFL smarts after year 1 by learning the tricks of the trade. But, Kancey, from what we’ve been told, likes to understand the OL blocking schemes and responsibilities of players other than himself. So, I’m gonna give the kid the benefit of the doubt. He won’t come out with a bang, but I’m sure the Bucs want him 100% healthy so he can at least use his athleticism.

    At best this is a 3-14 team.
