In this series, we’ll break down different scenarios that could, should, and will happen before the Tampa Bay Bucs get a chance to play them out.

The Buccaneers are 2-0. Unexpected by most, yet it’s the record the team has earned. After two weeks of 2023 NFL season, Todd Bowles and his notoriously ridiculed passer are undefeated, sitting in a three-way tie atop the NFC South. Can Tampa take their 2-0 record to 3-0? They’ll embark upon that journey on Monday Night Football, against the Philadelphia Eagles. Some things that could, should, and will play out during their quest—

RB Tony Jones Jr. was signed to the active roster.

The New Orleans Saints have announced that they signed RB Tony Jones Jr. to their 53-man roster from the practice squad. They have also signed DB Cameron Dantzler Sr. to the practice squad.

Jones was signed in 2020 by the Saints as an undrafted free agent. He briefly spent time with the Seattle Seahawks in 2022 and spent the 2023 preseason with the Denver Broncos. He was re-signed to the Saints practice squad at the start of the 2023 regular season. In Monday night’s game against the Carolina Panthers, Jones...

Relive the best moments of each game in the 2023 season right here.

We’re two games into the 2023 NFL season, and if there’s one thing we can say about these Falcons so far: They’ve been exciting to watch.

Sometimes that excitement has been ... not the good kind, like when Desmond Ridder caught his own pass in Week 1 vs. the Panthers for a loss of 6 yards. That was exciting, yes. Also hilarious. But I wouldn’t call it “good.”

But sometimes the excitement has been for amazing reasons, and those are the plays we’re going to keep track...

Fantasy football waiver wire targets for Week 3 of the NFL regular season including Kendrick Bourne and Craig Reynolds.

Another week, another round of injuries and player emergence. The weekly grind of fantasy football never ends, but the purpose of this weekly series is to keep Canal Street Chronicles readers a step ahead of their competition in their home leagues. Injuries in the NFL are all too common, so fantasy managers have to be ready to pivot. Saquan Barkley and David Montgomery look as if they will miss some playing time. Meanwhile, Cam Akers was a healthy scratch for unknown...

So far, Robinson looks to be every bit the player he was expected to be coming out of Texas.

If you weren’t already convinced that Bijan Robinson is the real deal, may I submit the following highlight into evidence.

It’s a unique angle that really shows off the rookie’s vision, anticipation, and shiftiness.

Over two games, Robinson has racked up 180 yards on 29 carries, for an average of 6.2 yards per carry. He’s added 10 catches on 11 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown. That versatility is just as valuable to this offense as his athletic talent.

The...

Don’t panic yet, it is early in a short week.

Bryce Young led the Carolina Panthers injury report this week after being held out of practice with an ankle injury that he reportedly sustained late in Monday night’s loss to the New Orleans Saints.

Brian Burns (ankle) and Justin Houston (calf) were among other notable names on the report. The team did not give much more information about any of these injuries, but there is likely some additional caution from the team given they are traveling to the West Coast on a short week to face the Seattle Seahawks this...

Frank Reich led his press conference with the obvious: Bryce Young missed practice with an ankle injury. The quarterback’s foot then obviously became the central focus of the press conference. Reich didn’t offer much about the nature of the injury or how it was sustained. Reich said they didn’t know what play Young suffered the injury, nor did they believe it affected his Monday Night Football performance. I wonder if the injury happened on the big running play where Young...

With Week 2 of the NFL season in the books, let’s take a look at the breakout player of the week for New Orleans.

The New Orleans Saints’ week 2 matchup against the Carolina Panthers resulted in a 20-17 win for New Orleans. While it was definitely a hard-fought victory, starting off the season 2-0 is impressive, nonetheless. With that, we continue our weekly series by choosing one player who broke out in the previous game, and going over why their contributions were so critical to the game.

This week we have a player entering their second season with the...

The young punter has a canon for a leg.

The National Football League today announced that Tampa Bay Buccaneers punter Jake Camarda was named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 2. Camarda is the first punter in team history to win Special Teams Player of the Week accolades multiple times with Tampa Bay.

Camarda led the NFC with three of his four punts pinned inside the 20-yard line, including one inside the 10-yard line, in Tampa Bay’s Week 2 win over the Chicago Bears. Among all players with three-or-more punts in Week 2, Camarda finished third in...
