Fantasy Footprint

After losing WR Mike Evans to free agency in 2026, the Buccaneers have 115 open targets for their offense. Second-year WR Emeka Egbuka must step into the #1 role after a rough second half of his rookie campaign. QB Baker Mayfield will be healthy (after shoulder/oblique issues in 2025) and focused on distributing to Egbuka, rookie TE Ted Hurst on the boundary, and depth pieces. The offense should benefit from improved health and clearer hierarchy (per [[CBS Sports Raises Questions About Buccaneers WR]]).
