The Buccaneers got some good news on offense in the team’s second walk-through practice of the week. 

Mike Evans Injury Report

The Buccaneers held their second-straight walk-through on Thursday in an effort to give some (a lot of) ailing players much-needed rest. But even with the practice estimations below, they got some good news regarding offensive players.

Wide receivers Mike Evans and Jaelon Darden, along with center Ryan Jensen, were all upgraded in their statuses from Wednesday with both Evans and Darden participating fully.
