TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS QUOTE SHEET 10-13-23

HEAD COACH TODD BOWLES

(On what WR Mike Evans was able to do in practice today)

"Mike was full go."

(On the status of OLB Shaquil Barrett)

"Shaq is under the weather. We'll see how he's feeling tomorrow."

(On if he's pleased how WR Mike Evans looked in practice)

"Mike fully participated. He looked good."

(On the status of WR Mike Evans for Sunday)

"He's full go. He's going. He's playing."

(On the status of DL Calijah Kancey, LB SirVocea Dennis and CB Jamel Dean)

"They're all full go – all playing."

(On if it's a good week to have the team healthy)

"We're all playing."

(On how excited he is to have a healthy team)

"It's early but any time you can have your full guys…they've just got to get used to playing together again. One week of practice doesn't make the chemistry right. We've just got to get some gametime experience – obviously, some have got to knock the rust off. We'll go from there."

(On how much DL Calijah Kancey might play and how he determines that)

"It depends on how long they're on the field and [we'll] see how the game is going. Obviously, we sub out quite a bit. We'll monitor that and see how he's feeling."

(On LB Devin White toughing out his groin injury)

"He did. He got a lot of treatment. He worked on it a lot. He looks a lot better now."

(On what will be key for the team to come out of the Bye Week with energy)

"It's tough. I've been on both ends of that before. Obviously, when you have a Bye Week when you're winning, you want to keep going, but when you're banged up, you want to take a Bye Week. Getting back into the swing of things and getting used to the grind of the middle of the season is usually different for a lot of people. Hopefully we come out with the same energy we had before we left."

(On seeing the way the organization has embraced the team's Creamsicle era)

"I don't know if it's overlooked. I think people get younger, obviously, so they don't remember it. I was a big Doug Williams, Jimmie Giles type of guy. Those guys meant a lot at that time, especially wearing that color jersey. They had a lot of good players back then – they should be remembered."

(On how QB Baker Mayfield's decision making has been)

"He's played very smart. He's run the offense very efficiently. I think he's playing the quarterback position very well. We're very pleased with him."
