The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to welcome back starting right tackle Luke Goedeke and defensive tackle Calijah Kancey for their upcoming game against the New Orleans Saints. Goedeke has cleared concussion protocol after missing the first five weeks of the season, while Kancey returns from a calf injury. However, starting center Graham Barton will miss the game due to a hamstring injury. Coach Todd Bowles expressed confidence in Goedeke's readiness despite his time away from the field.
- Goedeke's return is crucial for the Bucs' offensive line as they face the Saints.
- Kancey's return bolsters the defensive front after a significant absence.
- Barton’s absence will challenge the offensive line, but Hainsey's experience offers some reassurance.
