Markees Watts: Breaking News

Watts (hand) is active for Sunday night's game against the Rams. Watts hasn't played since Week 8 but will make his return to the lineup Sunday night. The 25-year-old linebacker has logged just 15 snaps on defense this season but has been a big contributor on special teams for Tampa Bay. Watts has produced six tackles (one solo), including 0.5 sacks, across eight appearances.

Watts (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. Watts drew the questionable tag for Sunday despite being a full participant in practice all week, and he has a chance to return from a two-game absence. He has mostly served on special teams this season, but he also saw some rotational snaps at outside linebacker prior to his injury.

Watts (hand) is out for Sunday's game against the Bills, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Watts will sit out his second straight contest in Week 11, this time because of a hand injury. His being out could potentially leave more playing time on the edge for 2024 second-rounder Chris Braswell.
