Will return for Week 10
Deckers (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Deckers was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the 35-year-old long snapper will play in his first game since Week 3 against Denver when he suffered a hamstring injury.
Activated from IR
The Buccaneers activated Deckers (hamstring) off injured reserve Saturday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. Deckers was placed on injured reserve in late September after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 3 against Denver. Decker was a full practice participant all week, and although he's listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, his activation from IR indicates he has a good chance of playing.
Not returning from IR in Week 9
Deckers (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's contest versus Kansas City, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Deckers has been out of action since injuring his hamstring and landing or IR in late September. He had his practice window opened Thursday and subsequently logged three full practices, but Tampa Bay has determined he's not yet ready to return to action. Deckers' next chance to suit up will be Sunday, Nov. 10 against San Francisco.
Practice window opens
The Buccaneers announced Thursday that Deckers (hamstring) has had his 21-day practice window opened, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Deckers can be fully activated from IR at any time in his 21-day practice window, and potentially as early as Monday's game against the Chiefs. Once fully healthy, Deckers will likely usurp Zach Triner as Tampa Bay's top long snapper.
Will miss time
Deckers (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Deckers suffered the injury in Sunday's loss to the Broncos and will now be forced to miss the team's next four games, leaving the Buccaneers without their long snapper. In a corresponding move, the team signed Zach Triner from their practice squad to handle that role starting Sunday against the Eagles.
Ruled out with hamstring injury
Deckers has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against Denver due to a hamstring injury, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. Deckers is the Bucs' long-snapper, and it's unclear who will take over those duties on punts and field-goal attempts for the rest of Sunday's contest.
