Rick Stroud (@NFLSTROUD): Bucs/Bengals injury report. RB Sean Tucker (hamstring) did not practice. OLB Ruben Bain Jr. (shoulder), WR Jalen McMillan (knee, LB Christian Rozeboom (foot) and T Justin Skule (oblique) were limited in practice Wed. WR Emeka Egbuka (toe) Abe G Billy Schrauth were full go.
Sean Tucker was the only player out of practice; the running back, a game-time call when both wideouts returned earlier this week, did not work with a hamstring injury. Linebackers Rueben Bain (shoulder) and Christian Rozeboom (foot) and offensive tackle Justin Skule (oblique) were limited, while guard Bill Schrauth (knee) was a full participant.
Todd Bowles said last week that Egbuka and McMillan were "headed in the right direction" for Sunday's opener against the Bengals, and Wednesday's report keeps both on that track.
