Calf Injury For YaYa Diaby

September 30th, 2026

Tampa Bay injuries are mounting.

Add YaYa Diaby to the list of important banged up Bucs. Today, Todd Bowles said today Diaby (zero sacks) has a bad calf and is questionable for Sunday against the Packers.

Bowles also sounded down on a Sunday return for Miami Mauler rookie edge rusher Rueben Bain. He’s got a groin issue and missed Sunday’s game against the Vikings.

The Bucs’ first official injury report of this week will be issued late this afternoon.

For those who missed it, it was reported Monday that receiver Jalen McMillan will miss roughly two months with a knee issue (PCL) suffered against the Packers.

    Jalen McMillan got injured in a game in the future? Somehow I thought it was against the Vikings.

  2. DS Says:

    He Can’t rush the passer. Muhammad and Walker should have gotten way more reps or possibly start

  3. DS Says:

    Also Diaby cost himself a lot he never gets to the qb he is a 3rd rusher

  4. BucsFan2023 Says:

    I hope the next man up to take Yaya’s place is able to drop back in coverage. After all, that’s the Bowels defensive plan.

  5. Jack Burton Mercer Says:

    It’s a shame Buster Kancey is hurt again. If he’s not hurt then what is his excuse for contributing less then Anzalone? Haven’t heard a peep from him all season.

  6. Newbie Says:

    Apparently this is the only way Walker can get into the starting 11. Then again maybe he doesn’t see a lot of snaps bc he can’t play well in space and cover.
    Lmfao

    I’m excited to see Walker get snaps an Let Bain heal up an we can let Yaya walk or sign as a decent #3 pass rusher starters should be Bain an Walker

  8. Rocketman Says:

    Yaya is an excellent physical
    Specimen and a mediocre edge rusher. Maybe he doesn’t have the physical drive. He certainly doesn’t have the bend.

  9. can-we-get-rid-of-licht-now-please Says:

    wow – Daniels starts @ QB
    Nelson starts @ OLB
    cool

  10. DS Says:

    Yaya is just a effort rusher

  11. Creamsicle Says:

    Yaya is just not good, even when he gets to the qb he can’t wrap him up. I’m excited to see walker and Muhammad start this week I think they’re both better than our current starters.

  12. Bosch Says:

    More injuries = more excuses for Bowels.

  13. Colonel Angus Says:

    He’s just another dude anyways.

  14. Rod Munch is Wyndham Clark Says:

    Is it me or did Jaylon look and sound like he was 12?

    Oh, Joe, thanks for fixing the Ads, HUGE improvement!

  15. Coburn Says:

    Last I checked we did not have any olb on the practice squad. Or who comes sign this week? We have Nelson and Walker and Muhammad I think?

  16. Stallworth Says:

    The players know this season is cooked. They are starting their offseason early.

  17. Larrd Says:

    Walker, Muhammad and Nelson might be better than Diaby, Bain, and Nelson. Of course Bain, Walker and Muhammad might be best rotation, but Bowles would never go for that.

  18. Steve V Says:

    I know i know it Bowles fault!

  19. BucFan1 Says:

    Ya Ya should change his jersey to #9.

  20. CosmoKramer Says:

    Here comes Floormatt with his excuses for Todd’s ineptitude. It was the injuries!!

    Only one game out of first!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  21. Hodad Says:

    Zero sacks after 3 games. Not missing much. How many years we’ve been waiting for this guy to bust out? Not happening. I’m sure Bowles will hold any player out he can so he can blame injuries on his lameness. New coach, GM, and first round pick talk in September! The Buccaneer trifecta.

  22. infomeplease Says:

    McMillan will suffer an injury this Sunday? Very interesting Joe. Or do I call you Psychic Joe.

  23. Lakeland Says:

    These guys are getting injured from being idle
    They’re definitely not playing physical football

    Yaya and Cody Mauch have played their way out of Tampa

  24. Joe Bob Pigskin Says:

    It’s all really coming together now…..we’re screwed.

  25. can-we-get-rid-of-licht-now-please Says:

    Godwin has an ankle injury – might be down to four receivers – and Godwin not synching with Daniels in practice is not good for a rookie – I think the team just quit on Bowles – it’s gonna look like a pre-season game on the Bucs side and regular season on the Packers side

  26. Ghost of McKay Says:

    This team is a Bunchabums. Thye ot their bags and h3adin out,

  27. Lakeland Says:

    I hope the new HC and GM can turn things around
    If not, we may be facing decades of losing
    That’s why it’s so important to pick the right GM and HC
    If they fire Bowles and keep Licht, we will get another inferior HC

    I’m just gonna sit back and let nature take it’s course
    I’m not losing any sleep over this crappy team

  28. Lakeland Says:

    We don’t need Chris Godwin in the slot
    That’s where Egbuka belongs

  29. Lakeland Says:

    They should sign Sterling Shepard off the Jets practice squad

  30. can-we-get-rid-of-licht-now-please Says:

    yeah Lakeland !! – I finally agree with you – but sadly Shepard has magic only in concert with Baker

  31. Will Says:

    Poor coaching, poor training and recovery, lazy off season sitting around training camp waiting to get paid, arrogance, lining pockets with money, no effort on games days, the list goes on. Those who are playing are few and they are getting hurt.

  32. Lakeland Says:

    Baker will be back

    Shep was more consistent than these young guys
    He knows how to get open, especially on 3rd down
