Buccaneers' Deven Thompkins: Limited to return duty in loss
Thompkins returned three kickoffs for 58 yards, ran back three punts for 34 yards and committed a fumble recovered by Tampa Bay in the Buccaneers' 31-14 wild-card loss to the Cowboys on Monday night. He finished the regular season with five receptions (10 targets) for 32 yards, two rushes for 26 yards, 263 kick-return yards and 61 punt-return yards across five games.
The undrafted rookie didn't garner active status until Week 14 against the 49ers, and he had his busiest day by far in the Week 18 regular-season finale versus the Falcons when he brought in four of nine targets for 25 yards, rushed once for 17 yards and generated 36 total return yards. Thompkins was notably kept in the organizational ranks over 2021 fourth-round pick Jaelon Darden, who was released after the Week 13 win over the Saints, and he could therefore have a legitimate chance to compete for a spot on the latter portion of the wide receiver depth chart in training camp with Julio Jones, Scotty Miller and Breshad Perriman all unlikely to return.

Buccaneers' Deven Thompkins: Elevated for Week 14
Tampa Bay elevated Thompkins from the practice squad Saturday for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Thompkins will be brought up to the active roster for the second time since joining up with Tampa Bay's practice squad in early September. While the rookie wideout was elevated from the practice squad Week 5 against Atlanta, he was ultimately declared inactive prior to this contest. With the Buccaneers' receiving corps slated to be at full health heading into Sunday's game, Thompkins should slot in as the team's seventh wideout if he does not end up being scratched versus San Francisco.

Buccaneers' Deven Thompkins: Will suit up vs. Atlanta
Tampa Bay activated Thompkins from its practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Falcons.
With both Julio Jones (knee) and Russell Gage (knee) listed as questionable for Week 5 versus Atlanta, the Buccaneers decided it's possibly time for Thompkins to suit up for his first NFL game. The undrafted rookie out of Utah State probably won't see much work Sunday, barring another injury.
