The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to face off against the Chicago Bears to open the season, but they’ll be without some key starters in the matchup.
Cornerback Carlton Davis, defensive lineman Calijah Kancey and linebacker SirVocea Dennis are all inactive due to injuries. Because of that, LB J.J. Russell (normally on the practice squad) and CB Derrek Pitts (normally inactive) are both active for today’s matchup. Aside from those two players, the inactive list remains the same as how it was in Week 1 against Minnesota.

- #8 LB SirVocea Dennis
- #21 RB Ke’Shawn Vaughn
- #24 CB Carlton Davis III
- #58 OLB Markees Watts
- #73 OL Brandon Walton
- #87 TE Payne Durham
- #94 DL Calijah Kancey
Meanwhile, here are Chicago’s inactive players:
- RB D’Onta Foreman
- OL Nate Davis
- QB Tyson Bagent
- WR Equanimeous St. Brown
