Tristan Wirfs Injury: Targeting Week 4 return
Wirfs (knee) will remain out for Sunday's game against the Jets but has a "strong chance" at making his season debut Week 4 versus the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
After practiced in a limited fashion throughout Week 3, Wirfs is expected to take a step forward in activity in Week 4 by participating in drills with the Buccaneers' other starters. So long as his surgically repaired right knee holds up well in practice during the upcoming week, Wirfs should be ready to step back in at his usual spot at left tackle. Graham Barton will protect quarterback Baker Mayfield's blind slide for the third straight game Sunday, but he'll shift back to center once Wirfs rejoins the lineup.
