The Tampa Bay Buccaneers received positive news ahead of their Monday Night Football game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Coach Todd Bowles confirmed that key defenders Lavonte David and Antoine Winfield Jr. will be available to play despite recent injury concerns.

While the team will miss wide receiver Mike Evans, defensive tackle Greg Gaines, and longsnapper Evan Deckers due to injuries, defensive back Tykee Smith has cleared concussion protocol and running back Bucky Irving is expected to play after recovering from a toe injury.
