Vincent Jackson, Mike Evans will play for Buccaneers

Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans will both play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as they take the field for their week 6 game against the Baltimore Ravens.

Both of Tampa Bay’s big wide receivers were listed as questionable for this week’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. To the relief of Buccaneers’ quarterback Mike Glennon and at least a few fantasy football owners out there, both guys will be available for Sunday’s game.

Glennon seems to have figured out what his formula for success is, and while it might seem obvious, it has still been a welcome sight for the Buccaneers to see their back-up execute the plan so well: throw the ball up to those big wide receivers. Let them out-muscle and out-jump people to make plays on the football. That plan can only work, of course, if those receivers are actually playing.

Jackson and Evans are both listed as questionable on this week’s injury report. Jackson is dealing with a rib injury, Evans with a groin injury. According to Ian Rapoport, both will play on Sunday.

Jackson has posted 21 catches this season for 278 yards and two touchdowns. He is coming off his best game of the season in week 5 against the New Orleans Saints, as he caught eight balls on 12 targets for 144 yards.

Evans has 17 catches so far in his rookie campaign for 203 yards and one touchdown. He played well in his last game in week 4 before being forced to miss last week’s game.
