Healthy Bucs (Minus Ryan Neal)

November 17th, 2023

Out.

Good news on the Bucs injury front. Only fan-punching-bag safety Ryan Neal has been ruled out of Sunday’s game at San Franciso.

Carlton Davis (toe) is set to return, and Mike Evans (quad), Luke Goedeke (foot) and Devin White (foot) will play through their minor issues. Starting left guard (former starting guard?) Matt Feiler is back from his knee injury.

Hey Bucs, it’s Week 11. You’re a relatively healthy team with quality talent and a ton on the line. No reason to come out flat, or to look like a punching bag.
