The Tampa Bay Buccaneers won’t look much different from how they did last year, but they will start this upcoming season without one of their key players on the offensive line, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.
“The Bucs will start the season without All-Pro left tackle Tristan Wirfs, who underwent surgery on his right knee Tuesday and will likely miss at least the first couple games of the regular season. Wirfs aggravated a right knee injury in the offseaon that forced him to miss only one game in 2024,” Stroud wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
“The Bucs scheduled arthroscopic surgery for Wirfs Tuesday, and some additional minor damage was found. Wirfs will likely begin the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list,” Stroud continued.
Not only is this a tough blow for the offense, but Baker Mayfield in particular, as Wirfs protects his blindside.
