Emeka Egbuka Earns Praise from Baker Mayfield
Baker Mayfield called his team's rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka an "absolute stud" during a recent episode of New Heights with Travis and Jason Kelce. The Bucs surprised many when they used a first-round selection on Egbuka this past April despite already rostering receivers Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Jalen McMillan. Egbuka starred at Ohio State in college, recording 81 catches for 1,011 yards and ten touchdowns as a senior in 2024. Tampa Bay recently placed Godwin (ankle) on the active/physically unable to perform list, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to go for the start of the season. That would open up a clear pathway to playing time for Egbuka early in the season. If he can take advantage of the early opportunity and run with it, Egbuka could be a draft-day steal for fantasy managers.
