The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in New York to take on the Jets Sunday. Saturday the team learned that head coach Bruce Arians, Sean Murphy-Bunting and Jamel Dean were all activated off of the COVID-19 list. Early Sunday morning ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that two key players will also play versus the Jets.
Buccaneers’ wide receiver Mike Evans, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a hamstring injury, is expected to play in a limited capacity vs. the Jets, per sources.

Mike Evans has been dealing with a hamstring injury and is officially listed as questionable. Shefter’s report says he will play. I believe Evans will be used but not his normal amount of reps. Evans is just over 100 yards from posting his 8th consecutive 1000 yards season.
Buccaneers’ wide receiver Antonio Brown, listed as questionable for Sunday due to an ankle injury, is expected to play vs. the Jets, per sources. Bucs initially had their doubts Brown would play, but he practiced Saturday and barring a setback Sunday, is expected to go.

Antonio Brown has been dealing with an ankle injury. Brown’s availability was originally in question, but after practicing Saturday he is expected to play. I see Brown having more snaps than Evans in this game.
