Why Buccaneers' WR depth chart is missing Mike Evans, Chris Godwin
Evans and Godwin are both out with injuries.
The future Hall of Famer, Evans, remains out with a hamstring injury.
Godwin is out with a fibula injury.
Neither practiced the entire week, which means it's not a given they'll be back at the next possible opportunity, either.
Buccaneers' WR depth chart
Without Evans and Godwin, it thins out quickly.
Here's what it looks like with the rookie Egbuka at the top:
- Emeka Egbuka
- Sterling Shepard
- Tez Johnson
- Ryan Miller
- Kameron Johnson
The names beneath Egbuka and Shepard could wind up being somewhat interchangeable, although it's Tez Johnson with the most explosiveness, for sure.
Baker Mayfield will just have to make do with what he's got.
