  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Out for Week 18

    Dean (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Dean missed four games on injured reserve in the middle of the season due to a hamstring issue, but he suffered a knee injury last Sunday versus Carolina and will now miss an important Week 18 date with a playoff spot on the line for Tampa Bay. Josh Hayes figures to draw the start at cornerback opposite Zyon McCollum in Dean's absence.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Dean (knee) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's injury report.

    Dean aggravated a knee injury during the Buccaneers' Week 17 win over the Panthers. His practice participation over the next two days will provide clarity on his chances of playing in Tampa Bay's regular-season finale against New Orleans on Sunday. Josh Hayes would be in line to serve as the Bucs' second starting outside corner opposite Zyon McCollum if Dean is not cleared to play.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Downgraded to out Sunday

    Dean (knee) will not return to Sunday's game against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    The cornerback dealt with issues to both knees throughout the week but was able to suit up anyway. Dean recorded a solo tackle and a pass breakup before leaving the game. Josh Hayes is his backup.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Aggravates knee issue Sunday

    Dean (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 17 game against The Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Dean managed issues to both knees throughout the week but entered Sunday without an injury designation. However, he is dealing with a problem with at least one of his knees again and was deemed questionable to return just after halftime in the contest against Carolina. Josh Hayes started at cornerback to begin the second half.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Ready for Sunday

    Dean (knees) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Dean popped up on the Buccaneers' injury report Thursday as a limited participant due to knee issues, but it now appears he's recovered in time for Sunday's divisional matchup. With Dean back at full health, he's projected to start opposite Zyon McCollum as part of Tampa Bay's top outside cornerback duo in Week 17.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Managing injuries to both knees

    Dean was a limited practice participant Thursday due to issues with his both his knees.

    It's unclear when the dual knee injuries popped up, as Dean wasn't listed on Wednesday's practice-report estimation. The veteran cornerback previously dealt with a minor knee issue that didn't cost him any time in late September, though he did spend four games on IR due to a hamstring issue for parts of October and November. It's not yet certain if Dean is at any risk of missing Sunday's Week 17 clash against Carolina, but the Buccaneers can ill afford another absence in their already depleted secondary.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Snags first INT since '22

    Dean recorded three tackles (two solo), an interception and an additional pass defensed in the Buccaneers' 40-17 win over the Chargers on Sunday.

    Dean snapped a near two-season interception drought -- his last regular-season pick came in Week 2 of the 2022 season -- when he snagged a Justin Herbert deep shot intended for Quentin Johnston with just under five minutes remaining in the third quarter. The INT was also significant since it snapped Herbert's streak of 335 consecutive pass attempts without a pick, and it ultimately led to a Mike Evans 35-yard touchdown grab. Dean is now just eight tackles shy of eclipsing the career-high 62 he generated back in 2020, although he's only totaled as many as five once in the last five contests.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Good to go for Week 12

    Dean (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Dean missed the Buccaneers' last four games due to a hamstring injury he suffered Week 6 against the Saints, but he was activated off injured reserve Saturday after logging full practices all week and will play Sunday. He should reclaim his starting job at corner opposite Zyon McCollum (hamstring), with Josh Hayes serving in a rotational role.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Back from injured reserve

    The Bucs activated Dean (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Dean missed the required four games while on injured reserve and appears poised to play Sunday against the Giants despite still being listed as questionable. Tampa Bay can certainly use him, especially if Malik Nabers (groin) suits up for the Giants on Sunday.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Could return Sunday

    Dean (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    The Auburn product has missed the Buccaneers' last four games due to a hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve. However, he has a chance to return to the field Sunday after logging a week of full practice sessions. Dean must still be activated to Tampa Bay's active roster in order to play in Week 12. If he's not activated in time, expect Josh Hayes and Zyon McCollum (hamstring) to serve as the team's top outside corners.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Logs full practice in return

    Dean (hamstring) was a full participant Wednesday in the Buccaneers' first official practice of the week.

    Dean's 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Monday, and the 2019 third-round pick started the week out strong with a full practice Wednesday. If he's able to practice without limitations Thursday and Friday, there's a good chance he would be activated off IR and suit up against the Giants on Sunday. In the five games prior to his hamstring injury suffered in Week 6 against the Saints, Dean logged 42 tackles (32 solo) and four pass defenses.

  • Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Gets cleared to practice

    Tampa Bay designated Dean (hamstring) for return to practice from its injured-reserve list Monday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Dean has spent the Tampa Bay's last four games on injured reserve with a hamstring issue he picked up Week 6 at New Orleans, but he now appears on track to come back soon. The Buccaneers will have 21 days to officially activate him before they would be forced to leave him on injured reserve for the rest of the season.
