  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Good to go for Week 12

    Dean (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants. Dean missed the Buccaneers' last four games due to a hamstring injury he suffered Week 6 against the Saints, but he was activated off injured reserve Saturday after logging full practices all week and will play Sunday. He should reclaim his starting job at corner opposite Zyon McCollum (hamstring), with Josh Hayes serving in a rotational role.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Back from injured reserve

    The Bucs activated Dean (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. Dean missed the required four games while on injured reserve and appears poised to play Sunday against the Giants despite still being listed as questionable. Tampa Bay can certainly use him, especially if Malik Nabers (groin) suits up for the Giants on Sunday.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Logs full practice in return

    Dean (hamstring) was a full participant Wednesday in the Buccaneers' first official practice of the week. Dean's 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Monday, and the 2019 third-round pick started the week out strong with a full practice Wednesday. If he's able to practice without limitations Thursday and Friday, there's a good chance he would be activated off IR and suit up against the Giants on Sunday. In the five games prior to his hamstring injury suffered in Week 6 against the Saints, Dean logged 42 tackles (32 solo) and four pass defenses.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Gets cleared to practice

    Tampa Bay designated Dean (hamstring) for return to practice from its injured-reserve list Monday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Dean has spent the Tampa Bay's last four games on injured reserve with a hamstring issue he picked up Week 6 at New Orleans, but he now appears on track to come back soon. The Buccaneers will have 21 days to officially activate him before they would be forced to leave him on injured reserve for the rest of the season.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Won't play vs. Baltimore

    Dean (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Ravens, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Dean suffered a hamstring injury during the Bucs' Week 6 win over the Saints. The injury was severe enough to keep him out of practice Thursday and Friday, and the 2019 third-round pick will miss his first game of the regular season. Tyrek Funderburk played 56 defensive snaps against New Orleans after Dean left, and the former should draw the start at corner opposite Zyon McCollum for Monday's contest.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Non-participant Thursday

    Dean (hamstring) was unable to participate in Thursday's practice. Dean recorded just one solo tackle across 10 defensive snaps before exiting the Buccaneers' Week 6 win over the Saints early due to a hamstring injury. His absence at Thursday's practice indicates his status for Week 7 is up in the air. More clarity should come over the next few days, but Tyrek Funderburk and Josh Hayes would be candidates for more snaps should Dean be unable to play.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Five-tackle effort in win

    Dean tallied five tackles (three solo) and defensed two passes in the Buccaneers' 33-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday. Dean had an active day from his cornerback spot, getting his hands on his second and third passes of the season, and finishing third on the Bucs in tackles. While that came in the wake of back-to-back double-digit tackle efforts in Weeks 2 and 3, Dean has thus far provided fantasy managers with useful stat lines in each of his first four games.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Productive day in Week 3

    Dean recorded 13 total tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Broncos. Dean was a busy man against Denver, leading the team with 13 takedowns in the contest. The cornerback has now produced double-digit tackles in back-to-back weeks after crossing that threshold just twice over 13 games in 2023. Through three contests in 2024, Dean has compiled 28 total tackles (20 solo) and a pass defensed.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Appears past knee injury

    Dean (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Dean was limited in Wednesday's practice, but he was able to participate without restriction in Thursday' session. Barring any setbacks, the 2019 third-round pick should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Dean has registered 15 tackles (11 solo) and one pass defended over the first two games of the regular season.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Five tackles in season-opening win

    Dean totaled five tackles (four solo) during the Buccaneers' 37-20 win over the Commanders in Week 1. Dean enjoyed a solid game out of his left cornerback spot, helping limit Commanders receivers to just seven total receptions for 55 yards. The veteran failed to record an interception for the first time in his career last season, but he also posted the second-highest tackle total (61) of his first five seasons.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Healthy again

    Dean (back) participated in practice Thursday, Rick Stroud of The Tampa Bay Times reports. The starting cornerback suffered a back injury during Tampa Bay's divisional-round playoff loss to Detroit. Dean finished the 2023 regular season with 61 tackles, four passes defensed and two fumble recoveries. The sixth-year pro is slated for a starting role again in 2024.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Team-high tackle total in win

    Dean recorded 10 tackles (nine solo), including one for loss, and broke up a pass in the Buccaneers' 32-9 wild-card win over the Eagles on Monday night. Dean recorded twice as many tackles as the next-closest teammate in that category, Lavonte David. The cornerback was kept extremely busy on a night in which Jalen Hurts was forced to the air for 35 pass attempts, and although Dean gave up his share of completions, it helped lead to a highly productive IDP performance thanks to the tackling opportunities. Dean and his secondary mates should have their hands full trying to keep up with Amon-Ra St. Brown and the rest of the Lions' pass catchers in Sunday afternoon's divisional-round battle at Ford Field.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Limited Wednesday

    Dean (ankle) was considered to be a limited participant at the Buccaneers' walkthrough Wednesday, Brianna Dix of the team's official site reports. Dean has been unavailable for three games in a row while nursing an ankle injury, but Wednesday's status is a promising sign for a potential return in Week 15. The cornerback will have two more practice sessions to increase his participation ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Packers.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Won't be available vs. Panthers

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Will likely miss time

    Dean is considered week-to-week after suffering an ankle injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Dean underwent an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of the injury. The Auburn product may face an uphill battle suiting up Sunday against the Colts, but he should currently be considered questionable for the matchup at this point in the week.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Cleared to play

    Dean (concussion) has cleared protocols and will play in Sunday's tilt against the Titans. Dean fully participated in Friday's practice, which indicated he was progressing in this direction. Barring any setbacks, he should play his usual role at cornerback.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Back at practice Thursday

    Dean (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Thursday. It's a relatively encouraging sign for Dean after he missed practice Wednesday to start the week. Even so, there may still be outstanding steps before he can clear the league's concussion protocol, and that might not happen before Sunday's game versus the Titans.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Prolific tackle tally in loss

    Dean totaled 10 tackles (nine solo) and recovered a fumble in the Buccaneers' 16-13 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. Dean posted an especially noteworthy tackle total for a cornerback, recording a career-high figure in the process. Dean's recovery of a Desmond Ridder fumble at the Buccaneers' 11-yard line following a joint sack by Shaquil Barrett and Calijah Kancey also prevented what would have a high-percentage scoring opportunity for Atlanta. Dean should be kept busy in Thursday night's Week 8 road matchup against the Bills while trying to slow down the team's high-octane air attack.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Out Week 4

    Dean (neck) will not play in Sunday's contest against the Saints. Dean was a nonparticipant at practice all week, so this is not a surprising turn of events. He injured his neck earlier in the week on Monday Night Football and will now focus on recovering for Week 6 after the team's bye. In his absence, both Christian Izien and Zyon McCollum are candidates to see increased snaps at corner.
