Egbuka's promising start as a rookie in 2025, where he surpassed 100 receiving yards multiple times, sets the stage for potential growth this season. Buccaneers offensive coordinator Zac Robinson expressed confidence in Egbuka, emphasizing the need for him to continue building on his rookie performance.
