Buccaneers vs. Chiefs MNF Inactive Report

Rookie safety Tykee Smith returns to action after missing one game due to a concussion as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday night, and his veteran teammate, Antoine Winfield Jr., will avoid missing time due to a foot injury.

While the Buccaneers’ secondary got some good news Monday night, the receiving corps continues to be hit hard by injuries. Mike Evans will miss his second straight game due to a hamstring injury suffered in week seven against Baltimore, and Chris Godwin is already on injured reserve. Rookie wideout Jared McMillan is also inactive Monday night after aggravating a hamstring injury at the end of the practice week.

Rookie running back Bucky Irving and veteran wide receiver Sterling Shepard were also listed as questionable on Saturday’s injury report, but both are active for Monday’s game.

The Buccaneers and Chiefs submitted their inactive lists Monday at 6:45 p.m. ET, 90 minutes before the scheduled kickoff of their week nine game at Arrowhead Stadium. After signing wide receiver Marquez Callaway and linebacker Vi Jones from the practice squad earlier in the afternoon, the Buccaneers had 55 available players and thus had to name seven inactives to reach the game-day limit of 48.
