Tampa Bay Buccaneers' triplets ranked 19th in NFL for 2026
Summary

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' offensive triplets have been ranked 19th in the NFL by CBS Sports. The ranking reflects concerns over the absence of Mike Evans, who has joined the San Francisco 49ers, leaving the Bucs' offense to depend on Baker Mayfield and unproven skill players. Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin Jr. will need to step up in production and consistency, while running back Bucky Irving's health remains a question. Tampa dropped from 9th to 19th in rankings due to these uncertainties and injuries. CBS Sports ranked the triplets with an average of 18.1, highlighting the team's significant slide despite possessing a solid offensive line.
