GM Jason Licht Talks Return Of Mike Evans, Jalen McMillan
November 23rd, 2025
Uplifting words from Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht tonight.
Licht visited the Buccaneers Radio Network and talked about how great receiver Chris Godwin has looked in practice. Godwin will play tonight and likely will be on a “pitch count” against the Rams, Licht said.
Licht also said receivers Mike Evans (broken clavicle) and Jalen McMillan (broken neck bones) are on track to return this season. He did not offer potential dates or timelines. But Licht was very upbeat about them.
The GM also said starting left guard Ben Bredeson (hamstring) and Bucky Irving (ankle/shoulder/personal) will be back, too. Licht said Irving could be as early next Sunday.
Joe was damn excited to hear about receiver cavalry on the way and very intrigued by the Godwin practice performance evaluation (more on that after the game). The Bucs have a chance to be a wickedly dangerous playoff team.

Just get through this game with no new major injuries, and then things should really start looking up.

Keep Bake safe. Young , Verse and Landman are dangerous.
Enough about who’s returning until they are back.

Win this game and I’ll feel a lot better about the rest of the season.

I don’t believe anything Jason says because Jason is so full of sh*t. Bloodbath.

Did he say anything about getting rid of garbage, scam master, Todd Bowles?

Not with This Swiss cheese Defense

Rest them and have them heal for next season. What’s the point…even Jason licht didn’t believe in adding anyone in free agency for this season

The defense is going to make it hard for the Bucs to win another game, let alone win the division and try to beat Seattle, Detroit or San Fran in a wild card game. Bowles D is simple getting boat-raced as I type, embarrassing themselves on national TV. I am glad the O is getting healthy but it might be too little, too late.

Bucs in no man’s land now…”stars” are old or on the downside, Licht has a lifetime contract for some reason…Bowles has survived ( barely ) because of a weak division and late season heroics by Brady and then Baker. Yuck(s).

Sounded a whole lot more like, a BUNCHA NUTHIN. Just tryin’ ta offer up some kind of hope for the upcoming ONSLAUGHT the Rams were boutta PUT OWN ‘EM. 💯 that is ALL is was. Hell, there are only 6-games LEFT. You don’t say all that garbage, while in the SAME BREATH, offer up ZERO to do with any actual legit ‘timeline’ whatsoever. So, PLEASE. Come on.

Should’ve offered Liam Coem headcoach money to be OC. doesnt
seem like Grizz is working out. We can’t put points on the board

I mean I love my Bucs. Been there since day 1 YES DAY1 I cant say anything else I’m so disappointed Light you should have helped us at the deadline. I am so disappointed I know the injuries hurt But you could’ve helped
November 23rd, 2025 at 11:17 pm
I wish I had a can of Ravioli that would help
November 23rd, 2025 at 11:18 pm
As long as Bowles is the coach this team will only be wicked at losing.

NO. Should’ve offered him THE JOB. Period. What the hell makes you EVEN THINK that HE would ‘settle for’ being just an OC, when HE friggin’ got a HC Job!? Now, that’s just crazy talk. The Bucs FO had to pull-the-trigger, and that decision was an EASY one… Should’ve already had their minds made up on that one, before the season was even over. 💯 it was a no-brainer.
