  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Breaks out in divisional-round loss

    Britt recorded 12 tackles (seven solo), including one for loss, in the Buccaneers' 31-23 divisional-round loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    Britt was the surprise runner-up in tackles on the night for the Buccaneers, trailing only Lavonte David's 13 stops. The third-year pro's numbers were all the more surprising considering he filled a rotational role for the third time in as many pro seasons in 2023, posting 29 tackles (16 solo) and one defensed pass over 16 games. Britt, a 2021 fifth-round pick, heads into the final year of his rookie contract in 2024 and could have an inside track on replacing Devin White next season if the latter is allowed to walk in free agency.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Could return for wild card

    Britt (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday night's game against the Eagles.

If the 24-year-old is able to suit up Monday night, he'd likely serve as Tampa Bay's top reserve inside linebacker.

Britt has operated as a depth inside linebacker and on special teams this season and has accumulated 29 tackles (16 solo) over 16 games.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Won't play in Week 18

Russell against the Panthers.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Downgraded to doubtful

    Britt (calf) has been downgraded to doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    The third-year linebacker was a late addition to the Buccaneers' injury report, as he popped up as a limited participant in Friday's practice due to a calf issue. As it gets closer to Sunday, it seems increasingly likely that Britt won't be available for Tampa Bay. J.J. Russell could see increased opportunities as a reserve in the Buccaneers' linebacker corps if Britt is out in Week 18.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Lands on injury report Friday

    Britt is dealing with a calf injury and is questionable to play Sunday in Carolina.

    Britt didn't have any injury concerns during the first two days of Week 18 prep but was a limited participant in practice Friday due to a calf injury. The third-year linebacker thus heads into the weekend with a questionable designation for Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Panthers. Britt has played a limited role on defense for most of the campaign, though he did step in to start in Weeks 14 and 15 when Devin White was out with an injury. If Britt is unable to suit up Sunday, J.J. Russell could see some work on defense.

    The linebacker had been listed as questionable heading into the weekend, but he never appeared likely to sit out Sunday after he closed Week 14 prep as a full practice participation. Though he'll likely continue to serve as a reserve linebacker and special-teams contributor, Britt may have more of an opportunity to contribute on defense while Devin White (foot) is inactive.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Enters weekend deemed questionable

    Britt (back) is officially questionable to face Atlanta in Week 14 on Sunday.

    Britt made an early exit from this past Sunday's game versus Carolina after injuring his back. He began Wek 14 prep with a limited practice session but was a full participant both Thursday and Friday, so he appears to have a good chance of suiting up Sunday against the Falcons. If he's able to play, Britt could help fill the void left by Devin White, who has been ruled out for a second straight week due to a foot injury.

  • Buccaneers' K.J. Britt: Limited to start week

    Britt (back) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session.

    Britt was knocked out of the Bucs' Week 13 win over the Panthers early in the first quarter after sustaining a back injury. He played just seven snaps on defense and recorded two tackles, and because of the injuries to the Bucs' linebacker corps, safety Ryan Neal was forced to fill in alongside J.J. Russell for the rest of the game. Britt's limited session Wednesday could indicate that the back issue won't cause him to miss time, which is welcome news for the Bucs' defense with Devin White (foot) not participating in practice to start the week.
