The Tampa Bay Buccaneers continued preparing for Sunday's NFC South matchup against the Carolina Panthers, but some players remain sidelined as the team heads into its final practice of the week.

Wide receiver Emeka Egbuka (concussion/foot), offensive tackle Luke Goedeke (calf), and linebacker Christian Rozeboom (finger) missed Thursday's practice, marking the second straight day all three have been out. Chris Godwin also sat out Thursday, though his absence was listed as rest rather than injury.

Tampa Bay got some encouraging news. Quarterback Baker Mayfield remained a full participant for the second straight day despite his right thumb injury, while safety Antoine Winfield Jr. continued practicing in limited capacity as he recovers from a rib injury. Running back Bucky Irving and cornerback Zyon McCollum also returned to limited participation after missing Wednesday's practice due to illness.

Carolina is dealing with its own injury concerns. Outside linebackers Thomas Incoom (calf) and Jaelan Phillips (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day, while quarterback Bryce Young (knee) fully participated Wednesday and Thursday. Running back Chuba Hubbard, who sat out Wednesday for rest, returned to full participation Thursday.

Both teams will release their final injury reports Friday, providing a clearer picture of which players will be available for Sunday's divisional matchup.
