The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' inactive list for Thursday's primetime game in Atlanta consists mostly of the five players that were ruled out due to injury the day before.

Defensive lineman Calijah Kancey will miss his fifth straight game due to a calf injury suffered in the final practice before the start of the regular season, though the might be nearing a return to action. Head Coach Todd Bowles said Kancey had a chance to be cleared had the game been held on Sunday instead of Thursday.

All-Pro safety Antoine Winfield Jr. and starting right tackle Luke Goedeke will each miss their fourth straight games. Winfield is recovering from a foot injury suffered in the season opener and Goedeke is trying to clear the concussion protocol.

Rookie wideout Jalen McMillan is out for a second straight week thanks to a hamstring strain suffered in practice last Friday. Fellow receiver Trey Palmer joins him on the inactive list after suffering a concussion in the team's Week Four win over Philadelphia.

The Buccaneers and Falcons submitted their list of inactives at 6:45 pm. ET on Sunday, 90 minutes before the scheduled kickoff of their game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. After elevating punter Trenton Gill and wide receiver Cody Thompson from the practice squad on Saturday, the Buccaneers had 55 available players and thus had to name seven inactives to get down to the game-day limit of 48. The Falcons elevated offensive lineman Matt Hennessy and inside linebacker Josh Woods from the practice squad and also had to name seven inactives.
