Here's how the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will look when they face off against the Washington Commanders during their first game of the NFL season.
The season will start Thursday when the Kansas City Chiefs play the Baltimore Ravens and will continue Friday when the Green Bay Packers play the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil, but for most of the league, action will start on Sunday — and that includes the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They'll face off against the Washington Commanders at 4:25 p.m. for their first home opener since 2021.
As such, with the game so close at hand, the depth chart for Week 1 has arrived. And while it's different from the first one that we got in training camp, there shouldn't be any surprises for any Bucs fans who have been paying attention.. Updated depth chart shows Barton as C, McMillan as WR3, as well as Irving as RB2. Palmer is the PR, while Irving and Tucker will handle KR duties. Smith will be the starting NCB.There are a few changes.
These moves were all expected, with most of them forseeable even in training camp. Still, it's nice to have confirmation of Tampa Bay's starting squad heading into this game and it will be interesting to see what its young players can do in 2024.River Wells is a sports journalist from St. Petersburg, Florida, who has covered the Tampa Bay Buccaneers since 2023.
