The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will visit the Buffalo Bills in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Emeka Egbuka.
Is Emeka Egbuka Playing in Week 11?
Egbuka is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Buccaneers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Egbuka in Week 11?
The efficiency for Emeka Egbuka has been in the tank for the three games post-injury (13 catches on 34 targets), but he scored last week for the first time in a month and continues to look seasoned well beyond his age.
The rookie caught both balls thrown his way on the first drive last week against a strong Patriots defense that was fully aware of Tampa Bay’s limitations at receiver, the second of which was a 21-yard score.
Not included in his 115-yard showing on Sunday was a 22-yard DPI flag that he drew, more hidden yardage that projects well.
Egbuka is a victim of his own success in that he’s not demanding shaded coverage schemes, but it’s clear that he has the trust of the ever-aggressive Baker Mayfield, and that should give you more than enough confidence to start him weekly.
We are 11 weeks into this career, and I’m ranking him alongside future Hall of Famers in Justin Jefferson and Davante Adams.
