Sterling Shepard

It was Shepard's least productive box score yet, though he remains stuck on only one 20-yard outing since Chris Godwin and Mike Evans both went down with injury. With Evans looking like he might be back from his hamstring injury when the Bucs come off bye in Week 12, Shepard can be cut loose if you were harboring any deep-league PPR hopes.

The Bucs removed WR Sterling Shepard (hamstring, hip) from the final injury report. He only got in a limited practice on Friday but is evidently good to go for this weekend's game vs. the 49ers. Shepard has seen five targets in each of the last two games, posting 3-18-0 and 4-48-0 lines. He's an unexciting fantasy option.

The Bucs played on Monday, giving them a short turnaround to Week 10. Shepard got the first two practices of the week off but returned for a limited session on Friday. The fact that they removed him from the report entirely suggests his light workload was something akin to maintenance. Shepard finished second on the team in catches (four) and yards (48) in Week 9, trailing only Cade Otton. The veteran wideout is on the FLEX radar as a WR5 versus San Francisco.

McMillan only got in one limited practice this week and missed Week 9's game with the hamstring injury. Tamp Bay gets their bye in Week 11 meaning McMillan would get a lengthy recovery time if he is held out for one more game. We suspect that is the route the Bucs will ultimately take. Sterling Shepard will operate as the Bucs' top receiver if McMillan is out.

Buccaneers WRs Jalen McMillan (hamstring) and Sterling Shepard (hamstring, hip) are listed as questionable for this weekend s game vs. the 49ers. Both guys only got in limited practices on Friday. Try to avoid Bucs WRs in Week 10 fantasy lineups.
