Description

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have elevated outside linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul from their practice squad for the regular season finale against the Carolina Panthers. This is Pierre-Pauls third straight elevation, following appearances in road games against Carolina and Miami. He has one pass defensed so far and is expected to see similar playing time this weekend due to outside linebacker Anthony Nelsons knee injury. Pierre-Paul, who previously played for the Bucs from 2018 to 2021, racked up 33 sacks and earned a Pro Bowl nod in 2020. This elevation uses one of the Bucs two available spots for Week 18, keeping their game day roster at 54 players while keeping 48 active. Pierre-Paul remains eligible for unlimited postseason elevations if the Bucs qualify for the playoffs.
