  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Won't play Sunday

    Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said Friday that Britt (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Britt injured his ankle Week 13 versus the Panthers and will now miss his second consecutive game while working to rehab. With Britt unavailable, J.J. Russell (hamstring) could get a chance to enter the starting lineup, if he can get healthy. Otherwise, that opportunity will figure to go to Vi Jones.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Opens week as DNP

    Britt (ankle) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice walkthrough, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Britt hurt his ankle against Carolina in Week 13 and missed this past Sunday's win over the Raiders. His participation level the rest of this week should clarify whether he has a chance of returning to action Sunday against the Chargers. If Britt can't play in that contest, J.J. Russell could get a start if he's able to return from a hamstring issue. Otherwise, the opportunity could go to Vi Jones.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Under the weather

    Britt (illness) was limited during practice Wednesday.

    Britt's illness didn't keep him off the field Wednesday, so it's likely not significant enough to keep him out Sunday against the Lions. His practice status in the days ahead will still be worth watching.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Ready for bigger role

    Head coach Todd Bowles said Wednesday that Britt is ready to become a three-down defensive player in 2024, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Britt has also demonstrated a better grasp of the mental part of the game, according to Bowles. The 24-year-old recorded 29 tackles (16 solo) and one pass defensed last season. He looks poised to take on a bigger role in the upcoming campaign, likely as a starter at inside linebacker next to Lavonte David.
