Is Emeka Egbuka playing tonight? Full injury update for Buccaneers WR in Week 7

There's a lot on the line as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head up to Detroit for a Monday night showdown with the Lions, but one big question looms over it all.

Will star rookie Emeka Egbuka play?

Egbuka left last week's win over the 49ers with a hamstring injury, because of course he did. Not only have the Bucs been cursed with injuries to key players all season, it seems the fine print in everyone's contract is that they need to sacrifice their hamstrings in order to collect.

His injury comes at a time when the Bucs are expected to get Mike Evans back from the exact same injury, one that has held him out since Week 3.
