  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Exits early

    Dean (hamstring) will not return Sunday against the Saints. Dean had one solo tackle before exiting. His absence will be a blow to Tampa Bay's secondary for the remainder of the matchup, but it'll also be an opportunity for Tyrek Funderburk, who made the Buccaneers' 53-man roster as an undrafted free agent out of Appalachian State.

  • 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.

Through three contests in 2024, Dean has compiled 28 total tackles (20 solo) and a pass defensed.

    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.

The Auburn product's performance pushed his season total to 15 combined tackles with a Week 3 matchup against the Broncos on deck.

  • 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

    Dean (ankle) is out for Sunday's game versus the Panthers, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. Dean will miss his second straight game Sunday as he deals with an ankle injury he sustained in Week 11 at San Francisco. In his absence, Christian Izien will probably see a heavy workload against a pass-happy Carolina offense.

  • 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: Misses practice Wednesday

    Dean (concussion) didn't participate in Tampa Bay's practice Wednesday. Dean suffered a concussion during last week's loss to the Texans and remains in the league's concussion protocol. If the 27-year-old is unable to clear the protocol in time for Sunday's game versus the Titans, the Buccaneers could find themselves shorthanded at corner, as Carlton Davis (toe) also missed practice Wednesday.

  • 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.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Done for the night

    Dean (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's contest with the Eagles. Dean suffered a shoulder injury in the first half and he ultimately will end up remaining on the sideline for the rest of the game. More information on his status will likely come in the postgame.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Will stay in Tampa Bay

    The Buccaneers and Dean have agreed to a four-year, $52 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Dean was selected by the Buccaneers in the third round of the 2019 Draft and quickly carved out a sizable role in Tampa Bay's secondary. Across his first four NFL seasons, he's totaled 197 tackles, 41 pass defenses, seven interceptions and one defensive touchdown, but he's missed at least one game due to injury in each of those campaigns. With his new contract with the team, Dean figures to remain a prominent member of the Buccaneers' defense for years to come.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Logs full practice Friday

    Dean (toe) logged a full practice Friday but is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Falcons, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. After back-to-back limited sessions to start Week 18 prep, Dean logged a full practice Friday, but he's still considered questionable due to a lingering toe injury. The fourth-year cornerback missed back-to-back games with the toe issue before returning to action in Week 17 and playing all 61 of Tampa Bay's defensive snaps. Barring a setback, Dean will presumably suit up again Week 18.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Suiting up Sunday

    Dean (toe) is active Sunday against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Dean was able to log a full practice Friday, so his ability to play Week 17 shouldn't come as a surprise. After missing each of the team's last two games, his return should be a boon for the secondary, especially with Carlton Davis (shoulder) inactive.
