  • Buccaneers' Benjamin Morrison: No go for walkthrough

    Morrison (hamstring) was estimated to be a non-participant at the Buccaneers' walkthrough Wednesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Morrison sustained a hamstring injury in the team's 31-25 loss to the Eagles in Week 4, recording three solo tackles and a pass defensed over 39 defensive snaps and six snaps on special teams before his departure. The cornerback will have two more opportunities to return to practice before the team travels to face the Seahawks on the road Sunday.

  • Haason Reddick OLB | TB

    Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Nursing neck injury

    Reddick (neck) was estimated to be a limited participant at the Buccaneers' walkthrough Wednesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Reddick suffered a stinger in the team's 31-25 loss to Philadelphia in Week 4 but avoided a concussion. The 31-year-old will have two more opportunities to log a full practice prior to Tampa Bay's matchup with the Seahawks on the road Sunday.

  • Jamel Dean CB | PIT

    Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Absent to open week

    Dean (hip) was estimated to be a non-participant at the Buccaneers' walkthrough Wednesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Dean suffered hip and groin injuries in the team's 31-25 loss to the Eagles in Week 4, the latter of which he appears to have moved past. The cornerback will have two more chances to return to practice ahead of the team's contest in Seattle on Sunday.

  • Buccaneers' Lavonte David: Limited Wednesday

    David (knee) was considered to be a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report following the Buccaneers' walkthrough, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    David had a quiet performance in the team's 31-25 loss to Philadelphia in Week 4, compiling three total tackles (one solo). The linebacker was limited to open last week with a knee issue as well, and he'll have two more chances to log a full practice to erase any concern over his availability Sunday in Seattle.

  • Tykee Smith SAF | TB

    Buccaneers' Tykee Smith: Considered unavailable Wednesday

    Smith (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report following the Buccaneers' walkthrough, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Smith compiled nine total tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed in the team's 31-25 loss to the Eagles in Week 4, but he may have suffered an ankle injury in the process. The safety will have two more opportunities to return to practice before Sunday's matchup with the Seahawks.

  • Nick Emmanwori SAF | SEA

    Seahawks' Nick Emmanwori: Practices fully Wednesday

    Emmanwori (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Emmanwori hasn't played since Week 1 against the 49ers, but his return to full practice should put the second-round rookie safety in line to play Sunday against the Bucs. He's expected to operate as the third safety behind Julian Love (hamstring) and Coby Bryant.

  • Seahawks' DeMarcus Lawrence: Misses practice Wednesday

    Lawrence (quadriceps) did not practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Coach Mike Macdonald said Wednesday that Lawrence is viewed as day-to-day, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. Lawrence had to exit last Thursday night's win over the Cardinals early with the injury after playing just 10 defensive snaps.

  • Seahawks' Devon Witherspoon: DNP on Wednesday

    Witherspoon (knee) did not practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Witherspoon dealt with the knee issue last week but was active against Arizona last Thursday night and played 100 percent of the defensive snaps.

  • Julian Love SAF | SEA

    Seahawks' Julian Love: Misses practice Wednesday

    Love (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Love dealt with the hamstring issue last week but played through it Thursday night against the Cardinals, logging six tackles (six solo) and one pass breakup on 100 percent of the defensive snaps.

  • Buccaneers' Sterling Shepard: DNP due to foot issue

    Shepard didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough due to a foot injury, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Shepard has been regularly playing at least 60 percent of the offensive snaps this season, and this past Sunday's loss to the Eagles was no different. While Mike Evans (hamstring) was sidelined, Chris Godwin (foot) made his season debut, and Shepard finished third in snap share (62 percent) behind rookie Emeka Egbuka (89 percent) and Godwin (81 percent). The result, at least for Week 4, was modest for Shepard (2-14-0 on four targets), and he now is dealing with a health concern. Evans still wasn't practicing as of Wednesday and is expected to miss multiple games, so if Shepard is able to prove his health by the end of the week, he should resume his standing as the Buccaneers' No. 3 WR on Sunday in Seattle.
