Here are the inactive players for the Bucs and Chiefs ahead of their prime time showdown
The Bucs are primed for prime time with the return of Chris Godwin and Julio Jones for the first time since Tampa Bay’s last prime time game this season. Godwin suffered a hamstring injury and Jones suffered a partial PCL tear in the win against the Cowboys and neither player has seen the field since.
With Godwin and Jones returning along with Mike Evans – off his one game suspension – and the emergence of free agent acquisition Russell Gage last week, the Bucs are finally looking to get their offense on track against the potent Kansas City Chiefs. The Bucs also promoted wide receiver Cole Beasley from the practice squad ahead of this game.
One of the wide receivers not joining the party this week is Breshad Perriman who is inactive with a knee/hamstring injury. Also not suiting up for the Bucs this week is defensive tackle Akiem Hicks who is dealing with a foot injury.
For the Chiefs, defensive end Mike Danna was ruled out with a calf injury while kicker Harrison Butker was ruled out with an ankle injury.
