Haason Reddick is questionable to return after a stinger and a possible concussion, forcing Chris Braswell into extended action and widening Tampa Bay's edge rush rotation with Anthony Nelson and Markees Watts stepping up.

Philadelphia's Hurts enjoys solid protection from Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata, while Vita Vea anchors the front and has two sacks. Yaya Diaby has cooled off after last week, and Todd Bowles' blitzes haven't unsettled Hurts yet, making Reddick's health a true game-time X-factor for the rest of the clash.

The matchup hinges on Tampa Bay's ability to generate pressure without Reddick and on Philadelphia's ability to handle interior disruption as Hurts improvises.

Two 3-0 teams collide as Philadelphia visits Tampa Bay in a showdown with major fantasy impact. Hurts’ rushing upside keeps QB1 ceilings high, while A.J. Brown looks to exploit a corner matchup with Jamel Dean. Up front, Vita Vea tests Cam Jurgens and the interior, potentially tugging the game toward the ground. Barkley aims to break a recent drought against a run-stopping Buccaneers front, and DeJean/Shepard duel could swing mid-slot targets. Red-zone efficiency and edge pressure will tilt a tight, must-watch bout.

Expect a grind with a few splash plays that swing DFS lineups and daily bets. Philly seeks a 4-0 start by protecting Hurts and leaning on the run game when the blitz arrives; Tampa Bay eyes a 4-0 start of their own by leveraging interior disruption and Mayfield’s short-to-intermediate game to counter a stout Eagles defense.

Haason Reddick signs with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a one-year, $14 million deal, chasing redemption against the Eagles who traded him away. After a brief Jets stint with one sack, he’s settled in as a high-usage edge and run defender.

The Buccaneers have pinned opponents to under 100 rushing and 3.3 yards per carry since Week 10, 2024. Reddick lines up on the left, with Lane Johnson blocking most of the snaps, while coach Larry Foote emphasizes earning the right to rush and cashing in with sacks as the season unfolds.

Aireontae Ersery’s rookie start in Houston has been a crash course in the NFL’s hunt for consistency. He admits a rough debut and three tough weeks, with three sacks allowed, 11 pressures and three penalties. Still, he insists the finer points—hands, setup, and communication—will click with more reps and study, and the Texans agree he’s trending upward.

coaches push him to stay sharp in practice and situational reps as he faces an even stiffer test in Week 4 against Tennessee. The focus is on mental fortitude and technique under pressure, turning early adversity into growth for a first-year O-lineman.
