The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are gearing up for their Wild Card playoff game against the Washington Commanders with a significantly healthier roster. Antoine Winfield Jr., the Buccaneers' safety, was a full participant in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday, indicating strong potential for his return on game day. Tight end Cade Otton also practiced fully, enhancing his chances of playing as well.

Cornerback Jamel Dean and safety Mike Edwards were limited in their participation, yet remain likely to suit up for the playoff clash. Additionally, defensive tackle Logan Hall returned to practice after dealing with a groin injury, while nickel cornerback Tykee Smith was back following a personal matter. Despite the season-ending injury to safety Jordan Whitehead due to a car accident, the Buccaneers are approaching full strength as they aim to make a playoff impact.
