Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Clean effort in preseason finale
McLaughlin converted his only field-goal attempt from 51 yards and made all three of his extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
McLaughlin had a miss in each of the first two exhibitions, so his long make Friday was a particularly welcome sight. The veteran had missed from 51 yards in the first preseason game against the Bengals, but he knocked through seven of eight tries from 50-plus during a stellar 2023. With Baker Mayfield and some of the Buccaneers' other key offensive starters showing well during their preseason cameos against Miami, there's optimism McLaughlin will enjoy plenty of fantasy relevance again this coming season while attached to what should be a productive offense.

Buccaneers' Payne Durham: One catch in preseason finale
Durham brought in his only target for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
The second-year tight end was able to get in one last bit of preseason action after missing the second exhibition against the Jaguars due to a knee injury suffered during a joint practice with Jacksonville. Durham was able to practice for multiple days leading into Friday's contest against the Dolphins, so he should be set to fill his No. 2 tight end role behind Cade Otton without limitations right from the onset of the regular season.

Buccaneers' Kameron Johnson: Five touches in preseason debut
Johnson brought in three of five targets for 12 yards and rushed twice for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
The Barton College product overcame a multi-week rib injury just in time to participate in the final preseason game, and while he didn't do anything spectacular with his touches, Johnson was kept busy during his time in the game. The undrafted rookie had impressed throughout the offseason and early in training camp, so he may have a good shot at sticking on the practice squad come final cutdowns.

Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Records 31 total yards in win
Irving rushed six times for 26 yards and brought in his only target for five yards in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
The rookie had drawn the start in the first two preseason games, but Rachaad White saw his first and only action of the exhibition slate Friday and was the first running back in. Irving checked in on the second possession and put together another solid performance relative to opportunity, and he appears set to start the regular season as the clear-cut No. 2 back behind White.

Buccaneers' Kyle Trask: Strong showing in preseason finale
Trask completed 17 of 24 passes for 141 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding one carry for one yard in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
Baker Mayfield started and led the Buccaneers on a touchdown drive during the opening possession, and Trask subsequently took over for the duration of the contest. As his final line implies, the third-year signal-caller was sharp and mistake-free throughout, and he connected with Ryan Miller (10 yards) and Tanner Knue (two yards) for his pair of scoring tosses. With John Wolford not seeing any action Friday and Trask looking impressive with his extended opportunity, it appears likely the latter has locked up the No. 2 quarterback job.

Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Strong finish to preseason
Tucker rushed seven times for 20 yards and brought in his only target for a 27-yard gain in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
Tucker led the Buccaneers in carries on the night while checking in second to Bucky Irving in rushing yardage, also making a splash play on his one reception. Tucker didn't enter the game until the final possession of the first half, but he's shown well overall this preseason and should be a relative certainty for a roster spot due to Chase Edmonds (undisclosed) likely being headed to injured reserve to open the campaign.

Buccaneers' Cody Thompson: Keeps ascending in preseason finale
Thompson secured seven of eight targets for 45 yards in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
Thompson led the Buccaneers in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the night, putting together a fitting cap on what has been a very productive training camp and preseason. The journeyman wideout may have done enough to carve out a spot at the bottom of the team's receiver depth chart after recording 15 receptions for 137 yards and a touchdown through three exhibitions, and Rakim Jarrett's (undisclosed) likely placement on IR could clear the path for Thompson to make it past final cutdowns.

Buccaneers' Mike Greene: Healthy again
Greene is healthy after missing practice with a right leg issue earlier in training camp.
The defensive lineman played 27 snaps on defense and one on special teams in Tampa Bay's preseason game against Miami on Friday. Greene is listed as a backup on the Buccaneers' depth chart. The second-year pro played on 162 defensive snaps and 38 special teams snaps across 10 regular-season games in 2023, making six tackles.

Buccaneers' Rakim Jarrett: Expected to land on IR
Coach Todd Bowles acknowledged this weekend that Jarrett (undisclosed) is likely to begin the coming campaign on IR, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
With roster cutdowns looming, it looks like Jarrett's unspecified injury will cost him time out of the gate this season. In his anticipated absence, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Jalen McMillan and Trey Palmer are projected to lead the Bucs' WR corps heading into Week 1.

Buccaneers' Chase Edmonds: IR stint expected
Coach Todd Bowles indicated this weekend that Edmonds (undisclosed) is likely to begin the coming season on IR, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Edmonds has been sidelined with an unspecified injury that has lingered, and it looks like he'll begin the 2024 campaign on IR, a scenario that would see him miss at least four games out of the gate. In his looming absence, Rachaad White, Bucky Irvingand Sean Tucker profile as Tampa Bay's top backfield options ahead of Week 1.

Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Catches 28-yard pass from Mayfield
McMillan caught his only target for 28 yards in Friday's 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins.
McMillan played the opening drive alongside starting quarterback Baker Mayfield, and the rookie third-round pick's 28-yard grab set up Rachaad White's four-yard rushing touchdown on the next play. The Buccaneers ran three-receiver sets throughout the first-team offense's time in the game, which suggests McMillan is positioned to see prominent playing time out of the gate alongside veteran wide receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. With Tampa Bay's preseason in the books, McMillan's next game will be the Sept. 8 regular-season opener against the Commanders.

Buccaneers' Cade Otton: Plays one drive in preseason finale
Otton started Friday's 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins but wasn't targeted.
Otton played only the first drive along with the rest of the first-team offense. The Buccaneers went with three wide receivers, one running back and one tight end throughout the drive, showcasing the personnel grouping that Tampa Bay will likely use the majority of the time come the regular season, which kicks off Sept. 8 against the Commanders. That heavy reliance on 11 personnel stems in part from the lack of quality tight-end options on the roster behind Otton, who exceeded a 90-percent snap share in every regular-season game last year.

Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: One catch in preseason finale
Godwin caught his only target for nine yards in Friday's 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins.
Tampa Bay's starting offense (sans the resting Mike Evans) played the opening drive, and Godwin caught one of Baker Mayfield's three completions. Godwin has topped 1,000 receiving yards in four of the past five regular seasons, and the 28-year-old wide receiver is expected to play a key role in the passing attack once again when the games start to count Sept. 8 against the Commanders.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Sharp in brief preseason action
Mayfield completed all three of his pass attempts for 54 yards in Friday's 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins.
Mayfield was in midseason form for his only drive of the preseason. He notched consecutive completions of nine yards to Chris Godwin, 17 yards to Rachaad White and 28 yards to Jalen McMillan before White ran in a four-yard touchdown to cap the first-team offense's brief stint in the game. Mayfield's coming off a successful first season in Tampa Bay, as he posted his first 4,000-yard passing campaign in the regular season and won a playoff game. The 29-year-old quarterback looks ready to pick up where he left off when the Buccaneers kick off the regular season Sept. 8 against the Commanders.

Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Scores TD on only drive Friday
White rushed four times for 16 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for 17 yards in Friday's 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins.
White opened the game with three consecutive carries for a combined 12 yards, caught a 17-yard pass two plays later, then scored a four-yard rushing touchdown two plays after that. The starting running back was highly effective in what ended up being the only drive Tampa Bay's starters played all preseason. Despite the offseason addition of Bucky Irving in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, White's set to reprise his role as the top option in the Buccaneers' backfield in the Sept. 8 season opener against the Commanders.

Buccaneers' Rakim Jarrett: Unlikely to be ready by Week 1
Jarrett's undisclosed injury is expected to extend into the regular season, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Specifics about the injury haven't been made clear, but it appears that the issue is serious enough to put Jarrett's status for the season opener in doubt. The second-year wideout has been slated for a depth role in Tampa Bay's wide receiver room. He got into 10 contests as an undrafted rookie last year, catching four of nine targets for 60 yards over 106 offensive snaps.
