Per Greg Auman of The Athletic, Buccaneers tackle Tristan Wirfs received some good news about his ankle injury. Wirfs originally thought he would need surgery to repair the torn ligaments in his ankle. But as Auman recently reported, it’s possible he won’t need surgery but instead opt for plasma-rich plasma treatments.
More good news on Tristan Wirfs' ankle — for now, it's possible he might be able to avoid surgery. He'll stay in a boot for a month, take plasma-rich plasma (PRP) treatments and see if he's able to recover without surgery. Either way should be fine for start of training camp.

As Auman stated, Wirfs will stay on a boot while receiving the treatments in hopes of avoiding surgery. Either route he decides to take will still have him ready for training camp.
Auman also had this fun nugget, Wirfs will be at this week’s Pro Bowl. He will fly out on his own to support and hang out with his fellow Buccaneers Pro Bowl teammates.
Bucs tackle Tristan Wirfs won't be able to play in Sunday's Pro Bowl because of his ankle injury, but he's still going to fly out to Las Vegas on his own to be in town for the event as a first-time selection, hang out with his Pro Bowl Bucs teammates and so on. Well deserved.
