Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Steelers. He’ll miss his 2nd straight game and 4th total on the season.

The Panthers are listing QB Baker Mayfield (ankle) as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Rams. Interim HC Steve Wilks said Friday that Mayfield might be active as the backup but confirmed that QB P.J. Walker will get the start.

Bucs WR Russell Gage (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. We'll see if he's able to play vs. the Steelers this weekend, but he's tough to like in fantasy lineups at less than 100%.

Bucs beat writer Greg Auman believes rookie TE Cade Otton “will continue to have a decent/growing role” in the offense — even when Cameron Brate is healthy. Brate is seemingly on track to face Pittsburgh following a Week 4 concussion. While boosted by 52 Tom Brady passes, Otton did well to snag 6 of 7 targets last week vs. Atlanta. We’ll closely monitor how the Bucs divvy up TE snaps in Week 6.

Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. The 33-year-old's body just can't hold up at this point. Jones is not a must-hold in shallower fantasy leagues.

Bucs WR Chris Godwin (hip, knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice. Godwin was scaled back to a 52% snap rate in last week's win over Atlanta, so his status over the next couple of days is worth monitoring.

Bucs WR Russell Gage (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Gage, who has previously dealt with hamstring and back issues. We'll track his status over the next couple of days, leading up to Sunday's game vs. the Steelers.

Panthers QB Baker Mayfield suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the 49ers, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "That means he’ll miss time, but how much will be determined by more tests and opinions," Rapoport adds. With QB Sam Darnold still out with his own ankle injury, Carolina will turn to QB P.J. Walker. The 27-year-old owns a 57% completion rate and 6.2 yards-per-attempt average on 128 NFL passes. So, as bad as Mayfield has been, don't expect Walker to be an upgrade.

Buccaneers QB Tom Brady attempted 52 passes for the 2nd straight game in Sunday's win over the Falcons. He completed 35 (67.3%) for 351 yards (6.75 yards per attempt) and 1 TD. Brady targeted RB Leonard Fournette most, throwing his way on 21.2% of pass attempts (11 targets) -- including his only TD toss. WR Mike Evans ranked 2nd with 8 targets, catching 4 for 81 yards. TE Cade Otton (6-43) and WR Scotty Miller (4-35) tied with 7 targets. WR Chris Godwin (6-61) and WR Russell Gage (2-20) each drew 6 looks. The Bucs now rank 4th in the league in pass attempts and have run on just 33% of offensive snaps for the season to date.

Bucs WR Chris Godwin delivered a fine outing for fantasy owners in the Sunday's win over the Falcons: 6 catches for 61 yards. But he played just 52% of the offensive snaps -- way down from last week's 83%. Godwin, of course, is returning from ACL and hamstring injuries, but there was no injury announced during or after the game. The Athletic's Greg Auman speculated that the Bucs just wanted to get Godwin some rest after taking a 21-0 lead midway through the 3rd quarter. We'll keep a close eye on Godwin's practice participation this coming week.

The Buccaneers lost CB Carlton Davis (hip) and S Mike Edwards (arm) to injuries in the 2nd half of Sunday's win over the Falcons. HC Todd Bowles had no insight into either situation immediately after the game, so we'll watch for updates on their statuses this week.

Panthers QB Baker Mayfield picked up a left ankle injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. We saw him lipping at the end of the 1st half, but he was able to return for the 2nd. Mayfield was in a walking boot after the game and said he was headed for a Monday MRI. We should learn more tomorrow. With QB Sam Darnold still out with his ankle injury, QB P.J. Walker is Carolina's backup.

Bucs WR Russell Gage (back) is active for today’s game vs. the Falcons. He was added to the injury report on Saturday and listed as questionable, so he carries elevated risk as a Week 5 fantasy play. But, with Julio Jones out, Gage should be locked in as Tampa’s #3 WR as long as that back cooperates.

Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Falcons, as expected. WR Breshad Perriman (knee, hamstring) is also out.

ESPN's Jeff Darlington reports that Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) will not play vs. the Falcons today. Darlington also confirms that WR Russell Gage (back) will play. Jones' absence locks Gage in as Tampa's #3 WR behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears that the Bucs "hope" WR Julio Jones (knee) will play vs. the Falcons today, "but he'll work out pregame to determine his status." We'll get Tampa's inactives around 11:30 am ET, but we'd try to avoid a less-than-100% Jones in fantasy lineups.

Bucs WR Russell Gage (back) is expected to play vs. the Falcons today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Gage was added to the injury report on Saturday and is listed as questionable. There have been no other updates on his situation, so he carries elevated risk in Week 5 fantasy lineups.

The Buccaneers on Saturday added WR Russell Gage to the final injury report as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Gage has been questionable for every game this season. It had been a hamstring issue for the previous 4. This time he's listed with a back injury after 3 days of limited practice. We'll see about Gage's status Sunday morning. He comes with a low ceiling anyway, though, now that the whole corps is intact.

Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Falcons. We’re expecting Jones to play but be 4th among Tampa WRs in playing time. He ran a route on just 30% of pass plays last week.

Bucs QB Tom Brady (shoulder, finger) isn’t listed on the final Week 5 injury report. After sitting out on Wednesday, Brady put in full practices on Thursday and Friday. We’re not expecting the shoulder or finger to be an issue in this weekend’s game vs. the Falcons.
