Buccaneers' Tykee Smith: Limited to open week
Smith (ankle) was a limited participant at the Buccaneers' practice Wednesday.
Smith was less than 100 percent to open the week after recording two total tackles (one solo) during the team's 16-0 win over the Falcons in Week 8. The safety may have picked up an ankle injury in the contest, and he will have two more chances to log a full practice before Sunday night's contest against Chicago.

Buccaneers' Kenny Gainwell: Limited Wednesday
Gainwell (hip) was listed as limited on Wednesday's injury report.
Gainwell sustained a hip injury during the Buccaneers' Week 7 win at Carolina, but he played through the issue en route to 14 carries for 88 yards. He then followed a DNP/LP/FP practice regimen last week before being listed as questionable for this past Sunday's game against the Falcons, for which he was active. Gainwell then reeled off a career-best 140 yards on 25 carries while working in tandem with fellow RB Bucky Irving. With a capped session under his belt to begin this week, Gainwell seems to be in a better spot than he was a week ago, but Friday's practice report will reveal if he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game in Chicago.

Buccaneers' Bauer Sharp: Playing time on upswing
Sharp went without a target while playing 19 of the Buccaneers' 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
After logging single-digit snaps on offense in each of the first six games of the season, Sharp appears to have firmly supplanted Ko Kieft as the Buccaneers' No. 3 tight end behind Cade Otton and Payne Durham. Sharp played a quarter of the snaps in a Week 7 win over the Buccaneers before bumping up to a season-high 32 percent share during Sunday's victory. The rookie sixth-round pick out of LSU will likely continue to be utilized mainly as a blocker; he's drawn just one target (a 21-yard reception) while running only nine total routes so far this season.

Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Head coach Todd Bowles said Egbuka (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, but the wide receiver was able to run on a side field, and the Buccaneers will see how he feels Thursday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Egbuka was able to clear ths concussion protocol last Friday, but he still missed this past Sunday's win against the Falcons due to a foot injury, marking a second absence in a row. Seemingly, Wednesday's bit of running is a test to get a sense of where Egbuka stands, health-wise, so Thursday's session could be revealing for his chances to return to action Sunday at Chicago.

Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Works on the side Wednesday
Egbuka (foot) was spotted running on the side with a trainer Wednesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Egbuka, who last suited up for game action in Week 6, was limited at practice last Wednesday and Thursday before logging a 'DNP' on Friday. It remains to be seen what his participation level will be as the week unfolds, but if Egbuka remains sidelined Sunday night against the Bears, Chris Godwin, Ted Hurst and Tez Johnson would be in line to lead Tampa Bay's Week 9 WR corps.

Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: No catches in Week 8
Johnson did not garner a target during Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
Johnson and the rest of the Buccaneers' pass catchers went without receptions in Week 8 as quarterback Baker Mayfield failed to complete a pass on three attempts in the team's rain-soaked victory. The wide receiver may have another chance to operate in a prominent role on offense if fellow wideout Emeka Egbuka (foot) remains unavailable Sunday versus the Bears.

Buccaneers' Ted Hurst: No grabs in Week 8 win
Hurst failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
Even with Emeka Egbuka (foot) missing a second straight game, Hurst couldn't catch a break, as the game was played in a downpour. Tampa Bay attempted just three passes during the entire game. Hurst has now gone without a catch in back-to-back games without Egbuka in the lineup. He has minimal fantasy appeal outside of being a hold in dynasty formats.

Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Doesn't see field on offense in win
Tucker didn't play any offensive snaps in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
The Bucs' RB3 played one snap on special teams. He stayed glued to the sideline, as Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell ran roughshod all over the Atlanta defense, combining for 52 carries for 310 yards and one touchdown. Tucker won't hold much fantasy value unless one of Irving or Gainwell goes down with an injury.

Buccaneers' Cade Otton: No catches again in Week 8 win
Otton wasn't targeted in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
Playing in rain-soaked conditions, the Bucs attempted just three passes all afternoon, as Baker Mayfield failed to complete any of the three. Otton has now posted back-to-back zero-catch games and has minimal fantasy appeal outside of the deepest of TE-premium formats. He has 19 grabs for 186 yards and no touchdowns on 30 targets through eight games.

Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Hits three field goals in win
McLaughlin made all three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.
The kicker connected from 46, 34 and 42 yards as he accounted for a majority of his team's points. McLaughlin has yet to miss this season, hitting 19 field goals and 17 extra points through eight games.

Buccaneers' Yaya Diaby: Out Week 8 with MCL sprain
Head coach Todd Bowles said that Diaby (knee) has been diagnosed with an MCL sprain and won't be available for Sunday's game against the Bears, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Diaby exited this past Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons with the knee injury, which was revealed to be a Grade 2 MCL sprain following an MRI on Monday, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Though Diaby will miss at least one game due to the injury, Bowles expressed hope that the Buccaneers' Week 10 bye would aid the edge rusher's recovery and allow him to avoid a stint on injured reserve.
