Six Bucs Skip Practice
September 18th, 2024
UPDATE: Justin Skule fans might like the sound of this.
Six Buccaneers sat out practice today.
Right tackle Luke Goedeke, seen at practice, an underwear football session in the Glazer Shed, was not a participant. Skule played in his place Sunday as Goedeke nursed a concussion.
Veteran defensive lineman Will Gholston was out with a knee issue, as was DT Calijah Kancey (calf) and Josh Hayes (ankle), Vita Vea’s MCL sprain (knee) had him sidelined and Antoine Winfield Jr. is still resting his injured foot.
Limited in practice were cornerback Jamel Dean (knee), Logan Hall (foot), Rachaad White (groin) and rookie receiver Kameron Johnson (ankle).

Sounds like Beethoven to my ears!!!!!
September 18th, 2024 at 1:43 pm
didn’t realize I would be saying this about Luke, may the force be with you and can’t wait for the return of the Jedi

Yayyy

2 years ago we were ready to throw him away and now he is a top 10 right tackle and crucial to this line. Especially his attitude in the run game.
Great news!!
Need Winfield & Kancey back as well, although they can probably afford to sit out another week if needed against Denver.
I fully expect this game to look closer to the Washington game.
27+ to 13.
September 18th, 2024 at 1:57 pm
We need him for sure. Keep up the progress.
September 18th, 2024 at 1:58 pm
Skule has supporters?
His mom. Maybe not even her.

“”2 years ago we were ready to throw him away and now he is a top 10 right tackle and crucial to this line. Especially his attitude in the run game.””
Very very true.
September 18th, 2024 at 2:20 pm
Thank you baby Jesus!!!
September 18th, 2024 at 2:28 pm
With apologies to Alice Cooper, hopefully “Skule’s Out Forever!”
September 18th, 2024 at 2:35 pm
Send Skule to Canales he can fry him with the Carolina Shrimp.
September 18th, 2024 at 2:36 pm
Cross train Hainsey. I’ve seen Soule enough already. Awful.
September 18th, 2024 at 2:47 pm
PFF credit Justin Skule with allowing 3 sacks, not 5 sacks. Justin Skule was a good LT when he filled in for Joe Staley during the 49ers Super Bowl run in 2019.
What l don’t understand:
The Bucs cut Brandon Walton( backup Right Tackle)
And they replaced him with Ryan Newman (backup Guard)
Justin Skule is actually the backup LT
September 18th, 2024 at 2:55 pm
Don’t you mean next year’s worthless preseason?
September 18th, 2024 at 2:57 pm
The Bucs gave up 5 sacks
Justin Skule allowed 3 of them
September 18th, 2024 at 3:07 pm
I’m the biggest Justin Skule fan I wish he would be the starter for the rest of the season !
September 18th, 2024 at 3:18 pm
Silver lining… we are 2 – 0 & Goedeke has a refreshed and fully rested body. LOL
Hope his brain is good, too!
September 18th, 2024 at 3:18 pm
With one of the dorky guardian caps on his helmet I hope!!! Keep that noggin safe LUKE
September 18th, 2024 at 3:20 pm
I would rather see Klein out there on Sunday if Goedeke still can’t go. What’s the worst that could happen? Give up 3 sacks in the 1st quarter? If that happens, you can always go back to Skule. Give the rookie some meaningful reps. By end of the season he might be better than Mauch!
September 18th, 2024 at 3:31 pm
“Skule has his supporters” ???
Like who? Opposing defensive ends and linebackers?
September 18th, 2024 at 3:57 pm
Joe in Michigan was making all sort of excuses for Sucke, not sure if they’re related or what, but it’s remarkable anyone could have watched that scrub play and not want him cut immediately.
Sucke sucked in the preseason, and literally had the worst game I’ve personally ever seen by an offensive lineman in the NFL. Yes, I’m sure, perhaps, there’s been worse play – but I’ve never seen it.
No idea why he’s still on the team. You could never ever put that guy out there again and have any confidence in him. The people saying to sign Donovan Smith have it right. I don’t care if he’s out of shape and 500lbs and can’t move, there’s no way he’s not one-trillion times better than Sucke.

—————
Klein was a guard in college, and is built like a guard. I know he got a few snaps at tackle in the preseason, but he also didn’t look good in that position.
But I’d much rather see Hainsey out there at RT. He was a college RT and there’s not way he wouldn’t be a dramatic improvement over Sucke. Heck they could resign Tom Brady and make him the RT and it would be a dramatic improvement.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:05 pm
THANKS JOE!!!!!
LOL
GO BUCS!!!!
September 18th, 2024 at 4:07 pm
This guy Goedeke Walks around One Buc like he owns the place.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:10 pm
We’ve seen what life is like without Luke. When can Licht give him a new deal? I recommend doing it the first moment possible, since his price is only going up.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:14 pm
I would sit him next week too. No need to rush anyone back for the Broncos, they are terrible and not in the NFC.

From an aggressive attitude perspective, the donkey does own the place. Please confront him in person if you’d like.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:17 pm
Good news. We need to give Haggard a try at tackle in place of Skule. Haggard looked good at G in the preseason and even got some RT snaps I think.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:19 pm
Need to see more Skule. Let’s get him up to speed. Gonna need him again.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:20 pm
We will need him for Denver. Those guys are going to be amped up at sea level.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:33 pm
Glad the Bucs are using the glazer shed, keep the team fresh. Sunday at one is going to be a hot MFer. Save their bodies till then.
September 18th, 2024 at 4:44 pm
Klein should start at gaurd and move Mauch back to tackle like he was in college. Was a TE that was moved to tackle would be a perfect 6th lineman days like Sunday and I bet he’d be a decent back up to Goedeke. Couldn’t be worse than Skule right? Best case he’s a back up gaurd tackle swing 6th lineman. Worst case Klein can’t start and we go back to him but he hasn’t done alot so far honestly.
September 18th, 2024 at 5:15 pm
Hopefully we can sing with Alice Cooper on Sunday:
Skule’s out for summer! Skule’s out forever!
But we wish him the best. On the bench.
September 18th, 2024 at 5:20 pm
This is a good sign.
I had a weird feeling that we might never see Goedeke suit up again on Sundays, but hopefully that’s not true obviously.
I just remember us losing multiple highly-touted and promising offensive linemen way too early here in the past… (Aaron Sears, Carl Nicks, etc)
September 18th, 2024 at 5:32 pm
It didn’t help Skule that the pass rusher he had to deal with was Aiden Hutchingson. Skule is probably not so completely embarrassed against more run-of-the-mill competition. What I’m saying is, it was not so much that Skule is so bad, but that AH was so good. Probably in the top 3 at his position in the league.
September 18th, 2024 at 5:34 pm
Thank God!!! I don’t think I’ve ever been more relieved in my life.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:09 pm
Rather have Walton back…mistake?
September 18th, 2024 at 6:18 pm
Some of you miss read this! LG67 was at practice but HE DID NOT PRACTICE!!! Most likely he will miss Sunday’s game!
September 18th, 2024 at 6:21 pm
HC Grover says” Rather have Walton back”
HC, You make a good statement, Walton would still be here if he didn’t have like 3 false starts in pre season. Walton definitely plays RT better! The other positions on the line… I don’t know.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:28 pm
‘74 buc fan- Cam Brate said how much Luke has changed since his rookie season. He said now when he see him at one buc place he walks around like he owns the place. I just thought it was funny.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:30 pm
RH. Played RT at Notre Dame for 3 years. Why don’t the Bucs cross train him for that position?
September 18th, 2024 at 6:33 pm
Sorry to hear Luke couldn’t go. Skule was a back up LT. Wonder how Haggard would do?
September 18th, 2024 at 6:35 pm
Broncos D-line is celebrating.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:39 pm
Ugh I really don’t want to watch another week of skule on roller skates the whole game. Way to many injuries we need to get some of these guys healthy.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:43 pm
Hainsey played tackle in college. Maybe he is mobile enough but he can’t be worse than Skule. The Broncos have an edge rusher who can create havoc. Hopefully the Bucs get this straightened out.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:48 pm
Tomorrow will tell more, but Jenna Laine quoted Coach Bowles as saying it was a positive that Luke was walking outdoors…. That’s not a great sign that he’ll be ready to go this Sunday.
September 18th, 2024 at 6:52 pm
Haha the Joe’s changed the initial Goedeke update to a full injury update and now the top comments are all left out to dry
September 18th, 2024 at 7:12 pm
Crap
September 18th, 2024 at 7:13 pm
I hate how this staff gets too cute and ‘outsmarts’ everyone else. Nearly every olineman they’ve drafted has been a tackle…yet none of them can be moved to that same position in a pinch?!
The Joes love to herald Licht as the best o-line talent evaluator in the NFL, but our top backup tackle is the worst lineman in the league.
September 18th, 2024 at 8:20 pm
Skule will do OK if he’s needed to play against Denver as long as Hutchinson doesn’t get traded to the Broncos this week.
He only allowed 3 pressures against the Lions, all sacks unfortunately.
But he’s not as bad as it seems after that game. He’ll get better if he’s the RT this weekend. And over the course of the season, the entire o-line will get better. Skule isn’t the only one who had issues against the Lions. A less mobile QB would have been sacked 7 or 8 times.
September 18th, 2024 at 9:16 pm
Way to kool for Skule!
Maybe there is a lock for the turnstile like there is at theme parks when they close?
September 18th, 2024 at 11:43 pm
Ya mean we can watch skule rule again
September 18th, 2024 at 11:55 pm
It’s true, Skule is not as bad as he seems at RT. He’s far worse. Statistically he is charged with 3 sacks, but he matadored, whiffed, snowconed, and P-popped all game long. He might have had 3 effective blocks, none that I saw against Hutchinson. But, this is on Coen. Deciding that Drule was not able to block Hutch mano et mano, he decides that Cade Otton can do it.
Todd as head coach needs to let his subordinate know this is unacceptable and if someone is getting curbstomped so bad that it disrupts not just the entire OL but the entire offense, best install the 6th OL to help the cadaver out and go with 4 eligibles.
Todd needs to be the bigger man here, and exercise his authority as head coach. Don’t let that carnage happen again.
September 18th, 2024 at 11:58 pm
Kyle has that right side on lockdown. Ain’t no one getting through. He just had a bad 1st quarter. Lol
September 18th, 2024 at 11:58 pm
Skule
September 19th, 2024 at 2:07 am
Why are we cheering? Unless I’m misunderstanding, Joe is saying that Goedeke sat out practice again. So I’m not expecting him to be back on Sunday.
September 19th, 2024 at 3:31 am
Uhg…do i have to go through this again….
Wirfs RT
Barton LT
Hainsey C
September 19th, 2024 at 3:32 am
Until Luke can come back healthy, of course
September 19th, 2024 at 6:27 am
I’d rather try Hainsey or Klein out at RT. Could not possibly be worse.
Or go get durable Donnie off FA. The worst you’d get is some bad holding calls and the occasional false start.
I’m not ready to throw away the promising start to this season seeing what Trask can do with the ones, because the OL got Baker creamed.
September 19th, 2024 at 6:45 am
Wait! Callijah Kancey didn’t practice again???
He’s useless.
September 19th, 2024 at 8:42 am
Skule still practiced? Thought he was still recovering from third degree burn wounds!
… or excessive skin scapes from Hutchinson tearing by him repeatedly.

^^^^^^^
THIS! Skule was exposed. Every OC will focus on him. They need to try Plan B.
September 19th, 2024 at 11:16 am
We could really use a bye week already lol
September 19th, 2024 at 2:58 pm
Hainsey or Mauch at RT if Luke can’t play. Skule was embarrassed, giving up 1 or 2 sacks to Hutchinson in a 60 minute game is expectable but 3 in 1 quarter is time to let someone else pass block. Hainsey is fairly athletic though not strong enough to run block. Pass blocking is more about footwork and be quick enough to not get beat when the pass rusher goes outside/inside.
Skule couldn’t move to his right fast enough and was grasping at air within one second of the snap. He was really bad out there and Mayfield needs to know that he has a pocket.
