Game News
The Falcons' win probability was as low as 4.7% following Lavonte David's interception on 4th & 15 in Falcons territory. This is the Falcons' 2nd win of the season with a minimum win probability of less than 5%. They had zero such wins between 2016 & 2023. Powered by @awscloud pic.x.com/BbHVrgeARx
Mike Evans also now has 100 total touchdowns (he has one on a fumble recovery), making him the 26th player in league history to reach that mark. HALL. OF. FAME.
Sheesh ... Bucky Irving was about to put the game away. Heck of a play by Jessie Bates to punch that ball out.
First-year OLB Jose Ramirez is active for the first time in his career.
I don't know everything about football, but using Bijan one on one to pick up Vita Vea ... is one sided.
Chase McLaughlin just made his 26th straight regular season field goal attempt, a new Buccaneers record. Connor Barth held the previous record at 25.
Diaby's back. Field goal's blocked. Bucs have a chance to close it out.
@AlbertBreer: Yaya Diaby down on the field, and that'd be a big loss for the Bucs.
Tavierre Thomas with the blocked field goal, the first by a Buc since Patrick O'Connor against Baltimore on 10/27/23.
S Tykee Smith, who was evaluated for a concussion, is back in the game.
Rachaad White's 56-yard run to the Atlanta 15 is the longest of his career. His previous long was 38 yards.
The Buccaneers have elevated punter Trenton Gill and wide receiver Cody Thompson from the practice squad for tonight's game. buccaneers.com/news/bucs-elev...
Safety Jordan Whitehead has a groin injury and is questionable to return to the game.
Quick injury note at kickoff: Bucs are pretty optimistic they'll have Antoine Winfield, Luke Goedeke and Calijah Kancey back for Week 6 in New Orleans.
Bucs rookie WR Kameron Johnson has an ankle injury and is questionable to return to the game.
Chris Godwin will lead the Tampa Bay Buccaneers into their matchup against the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Thursday at 8:15 p.m. ET.
The Falcons rank 19th in total offense (309.3 yards per game) and 19th in total defense (336.5 yards allowed per game) this year. The Buccaneers are accumulating 24.3 points per game on offense this season (11th-ranked). Meanwhile, they are giving up 19.5 points per contest (ninth-ranked) on defense.

Buccaneers wide receiver Kameron Johnson is questionable to return to their Thursday night matchup with the Atlanta Falcons with an ankle injury. The undrafted rookie was injured on Tampa Bay’s first offensive drive of the game.
The Bucs are already without receivers Jalen McMillan (hamstring) and Trey Palmer (concussion). They signed Sterling Shepard to the main roster and elevated Cody Thompson from the practice squad for the Thursday night game.
Johnson was spotted on the sideline on a bike, seemingly trying to test his ankle while the team decides on his future for the game. The broadcast said he remains questionable to return despite his appearance on the sideline
Kirk Cousins threw for a franchise-record 509 yards during Atlanta's 36-30 OT win.
Entering tonight, Drake London's career high in targets was 12. He had 12 receptions tonight.
KhaDarel Hodge reached a top speed of 19.70 MPH on his game-winning TD reception in overtime, his 2nd-fastest speed as a ball carrier in his career. Hodge's touchdown was the 6th-most improbable touchdown reception of the season (0.03% probability). #TBvsATL | @AtlantaFalcons pic.x.com/NMXzEP0aod
Jessie Bates is a menace. Easier to stay away.
@NFL: CHAOS ? @AtlantaFalcons recover the fumble!

Drake London exited the blue medical tent and headed to the locker room after being evaluated for a concussion.
Falcons CB Dee Alford has also been ruled out with a concussion.
@CameronWolfe: Drake London is in the blue medical tent and they took his helmet after personal foul hit to the head. Usual sign that he's been evaluated for a concussion.
Darnell Mooney's been such a good signing for Atlanta. Kirk Cousins prefers throwing to receivers who get separation, and Mooney's one of those--really good job by the team of fitting a WR signing to the QB.
@NFLonPrime: A LASER to Darnell Mooney for 6 ?

The Falcons still aren't getting the return they need from top-eight picks Bijan Robinson, Kyle Pitts, Drake London. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal...
Our guy @CameronWolfe talked to us on The Insiders earlier about the #Falcons getting Kyle Pitts more involved tonight. Two plays into the game... pic.x.com/0TPE6Gvq9b
RT: Falcons punter Bradley Pinion has been experiencing neck spasms today. He is expected to play in tonight's game and therefore does not have an injury designation on the game report at this time, according to a team statement.
Thursday Night Football: Falcons rookie Ruke Orhorhoro active for first time. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal...
The Atlanta Falcons (2-2) are less than four hours away from kicking off their Week 5 NFC South matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1) on Thursday night football.
According to team reporter Terrin Waack, the Falcons have elevated offensive lineman Matt Hennessy and linebacker Josh Woods to the active roster as their two Week 5 practice squad elevations.
With injuries at center and inside linebacker, the team could use the extra depth on Thursday night. Starting center Drew Dalman is on the injured reserve list due to a high-ankle sprain while linebacker Troy Andersen has been ruled with a knee injury
The Atlanta Falcons (2-2) have listed their inactives for Thursday’s prime-time matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1). Rookie defensive lineman Ruke Orhorhoro is active for the first time all season.
Linebacker Troy Andersen was among seven players ruled out for Week 5. Defensive linemen Kenatavius Street and Brandon Dorlus are inactive along with offensive linemen Brandon Parker and Elijah Wilkinson.
Check out the team’s full list of inactives below:
As for this week’s practice squad elevations, the team has promoted offensive lineman Matt Hennessy and linebacker Josh Woods to the active roster for Thursday night’s division battle in Atlanta
With 1:22 remaining in the first quarter of the Week 5 Thursday Night Football showdown between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Atlanta Falcons Week 5, kicker Chase McLaughlin hit a 53-yard field goal to put the Bucs up 10-7.
McLaughlin’s kicking efficiency came on the heels of Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo missing two kicks, one of which didn’t count due to a penalty. The Falcons kicker proved last week to be consistent from over 50+ yards when he won the ball game for the Falcons, but he is not nearly as good as McLaughlin has been from that distance, as history tells us
