The Buccaneers activated Pinion (hip/illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

Pinion tested positive for COVID-19 last Friday and was unavailable for Sunday's Week 17 win over the Jets. However, he'll now be cleared to rejoin the team. The 27-year-old was bothered by a hip injury last Wednesday and Thursday, so it's not yet clear whether he'll have any limitations ahead of Sunday's game against Carolina.
