Edmonds was placed on season-ending injured reserve Monday due to a knee injury, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. The 28-year-old RB won't be designated for a return, meaning the only way he can play this season is if he reaches an injury settlement to be released by Tampa Bay. Edmonds hasn't practiced since the first week of training camp and recently had arthroscopic surgery on his injured knee.

Edmonds was placed on season-ending injured reserve Monday due to a knee injury, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. The 28-year-old RB won't be designated for a return, meaning the only way he can play this season is if he reaches an injury settlement to be released by Tampa Bay. Edmonds hasn't practiced since the first week of training camp and recently had arthroscopic surgery on his injured knee.
The Buccaneers placed Edmonds (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. Edmonds has been nursing an undisclosed injury throughout training camp, and it will now cost him the 2024 season. As a result, Bucky Irving, Sean Tucker and DJ Williams will be the remaining candidates for a depth role at running back behind Rachaad White. Edmonds was not given the IR designated to return option, so he will now set his sights on recovering for 2025.
Coach Todd Bowles indicated this weekend that Edmonds (undisclosed) is likely to begin the coming season on IR, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Edmonds has been sidelined with an unspecified injury that has lingered, and it looks like he'll begin the 2024 campaign on IR, a scenario that would see him miss at least four games out of the gate. In his looming absence, Rachaad White, Bucky Irvingand Sean Tucker profile as Tampa Bay's top backfield options ahead of Week 1.
Edmonds (undisclosed) isn't practicing Tuesday, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Edmonds has been out with an undisclosed injury since the start of training camp, with his absence now nearing the one-month mark. Meanwhile, Bucky Irving worked ahead of Tampa Bay's other reserve running backs in each of the first two preseason games, putting him on track to enter Week 1 as the No. 2 RB behind returning starter Rachaad White. It's possible Edmonds won't have a spot on the roster even if he returns to health before cut-down day Aug. 27.
Edmonds (undisclosed) has missed nearly two weeks of practice and won't participate Tuesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. Edmonds has been nursing an undisclosed injury since the early days of training camp. He was expected to compete with rookie Bucky Irving and others for backup roles behind starting running back Rachaad White, who played 78.1 percent of Tampa Bay's snaps on offense last season.
Edmonds isn't practicing due to an undisclosed injury, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Coach Todd Bowles declined to elaborate on the nature of the injury that has Edmonds sidelined for the start of training camp. The 28-year-old is expected to compete with rookie fourth-round pick Bucky Irving and others for backup roles behind starting running back Rachaad White.
Tampa Bay re-signed Edmonds on Wednesday. Edmonds returns to a Buccaneers team that trusted him with the No. 2 role behind lead back Rachaad White last season. Across 13 regular-season appearances in 2023, Edmonds rushed 49 times for 176 yards and secured 14 of 17 catches for 81 yards, all without a single touchdown. He could be primed for a similar role in 2024, though Sean Tucker will be a candidate to carve out a larger workload Year 2, and Tampa Bay could still add to the backfield in free agency or April's draft.
Edmonds made his return from a four-game absence due to a knee injury and was very busy relative to opportunity. The versatile back logged only eight snaps from scrimmage, so in that context, his five touches were encouraging. Edmonds could continue to see his role expand in coming games, with his next opportunity coming in a Week 9 road matchup against the Texans.
Edmonds was designated for return at the beginning of the week and listed as a full practice participant both Monday and Tuesday. He appears ready to play Thursday night at Buffalo, though it isn't quite clear what his role will be given that starter Rachaad White has been better on passing downs than running downs and thus seems to have strengths that overlap with Edmonds'. Ke'Shawn Vaughn has been Tampa's No. 2 back of late, mostly subbing in for White on early downs and taking a handful or so of carries per game.
