Buccaneers host Steelers at Raymond James Stadium Sunday

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, according to WFLA 8.

The Steelers will enter the game with several players inactive due to injuries. Running back Rico Dowdle is active after missing three games with a toe injury, while receiver Ben Skowronek is out with a calf injury. Additionally, Roman Wilson and Michael Pittman Jr. remain on the Reserve/Injured List, as reported by Steelers.com.

Skowronek's absence affects both the offense and special teams, where he was a Pro Bowl selection in 2025. Special teams coordinator Danny Crossman highlighted the impact of missing a high-level player who can make game-changing plays.

Rookie receiver Germie Bernard has been stepping up in the offense and is expected to have a bigger role with Wilson and Skowronek sidelined. Offensive coordinator Brian Angelichio noted Bernard's growth and increasing comfort in the offense, especially in connection with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
