Dennis (ankle/foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Ruled out for Week 5
Dennis (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Dallas, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Dennis suffered an ankle injury during the Buccaneers' Week 4 loss to the Packers on Sunday. The Bucs are still awaiting the results of his MRI, but the injury is severe enough for the fourth-year pro to be sidelined for Thursday night's contest. In Dennis' absence, Christian Rozeboom will be the sole depth option at inside linebacker behind Alex Anzalone and Josiah Trotter.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Undergoes MRI for ankle injury
Dennis (ankle) underwent an MRI after the Buccaneers' Week 4 loss to the Packers, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reported Monday.
Dennis exited the loss to the Packers early with an ankle injury. The linebacker entered the Week 4 matchup dealing with a lingering calf injury, and the need for an MRI after the contest does not bode well for the 26-year-old's leg. It remains unclear how significant Dennis' injury is and how much time he may be required to miss.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Departs Week 4 game with ankle injury
Dennis (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against Green Bay, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Dennis dealt with a calf injury during the week but was ultimately cleared to play Sunday. However, he suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's contest and isn't certain to return. Should Dennis be done for the day, Christian Rozeboom could be asked to step up and log more work on defense.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Cleared to take field
Dennis (calf) is active Week 4 against Green Bay.
Dennis saw the field for 27 defensive snaps in Week 3, in addition to his regular duties on special teams, which may indicate a growing role on the defensive side for the fourth-year linebacker. The extra run led to a season-best four tackles, which he'll look to eclipse Sunday.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Limited in practice Friday
Dennis (calf/personal) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Dennis was limited in Wednesday's practice with a calf injury before downgrading to a DNP in Thursday's session. The linebacker was able to return to practice Friday but is also dealing with a personal issue. With Josiah Trotter back as the starting inside linebacker next to Alex Anzalone for Sunday's game against the Packers, Dennis will be in a reserve role if he can suit up.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Starting Sunday sans Trotter
Dennis will start at inside linebacker against the Vikings on Sunday due to the absence of Jeremiah Trotter (shoulder), Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Dennis has mostly worked on special teams this season and has only two tackles (one solo) through two games. However, with Trotter sidelined by a shoulder issue, Dennis will start next to Alex Anzalone for Sunday's game, with Christian Rozeboom providing depth at the position. Dennis was a regular starter for the Buccaneers last year, when he logged 101 tackles (66 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and five pass defenses (including one interception) across 16 regular-season games.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Career-best season in '25
Dennis recorded 101 tackles (66 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and five defensed passes, including one interception, across 16 games in the 2025 regular season.
After playing under 100 snaps in each of his first two seasons over 17 total games, Dennis moved into a full-time role and put his whopping 909 snaps to good use. Dennis' stat line was unsurprisingly comprised of career-best figures across the board, and he recorded at least seven tackles on 10 occasions. Dennis will now head into the final year of his rookie contract in 2026, although given his breakout campaign, it's certainly conceivable he and the Bucs come to terms on an extension this offseason.

Dennis has recorded at least seven tackles in four of his last five games, and for the season he has 99 tackles (64 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and five pass defenses (one interception) across 15 games. The Buccaneers wrap up the regular season Saturday against the Panthers, when Dennis will look to crack the tackling century mark for the first time in his three-year NFL career.

Buccaneers' SirVocea Dennis: Logs another DNP
Dennis (hip) did not participate in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.
Dennis has opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a hip injury that he likely picked up in Sunday's loss to the Saints. Wednesday will be Dennis' last opportunity to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Thursday's NFC South tilt against the Falcons. If he is not cleared to play, then John Bullock would be the top candidate to start at inside linebacker alongside Lavonte David.
