The Buccaneers travel to Seattle with 19 players on the week’s injury report and a suddenly vulnerable secondary. Jamel Dean, Benjamin Morrison and Christian Izien are unlikely to practice, leaving depth options thin and forcing a rethink of Sunday’s coverage plan.

Coaches could shift Jacob Parrish to the perimeter and drop Tykee Smith to nickel, or lean on Kindle Vildor across from Zyon McCollum with Bryce Hall as insurance. Either path raises risk for fantasy receivers facing a patched Bucs secondary.

Health will determine Tampa’s approach, and Seattle’s quick-pass attack could test the reshaped back end. If Dean and company sit, early targets could swing toward Seattle’s short-hands and create upside for volume-driven fantasy plays on the Seahawks side.

Tampa Bay can leverage a stronger back end and a sharper special teams unit to slow Philadelphia in Week 4. Antoine Winfield Jr. anchors a versatile safety trio, while Jamel Dean and Zyon McCollum patrol the boundaries with solid thorny coverage, aided by rookie help from Parrish and Morrison. The Buccaneers also win the field-position battle with Chase McLaughlin’s reliable kicking and a disciplined return game. If they press these edges, TB can stay within striking distance of the high-powered Eagles.
