Ted Hurst III — Active
With Emeka Egbuka (concussion/foot) inactive, Hurst was expected to take on an expanded offensive role, but it was actually Tez Johnson who saw the bigger bump in playing time. Johnson played 41 snaps to Hurst's 35 and ran one more route (12) than the rookie wide receiver. The Bucs clobbered the Panthers, and Baker Mayfield was forced to drop back to pass just 11 times on the afternoon.

Per Greg Auman of Fox Sports, Egbuka has gotten 43 percent of the targets and 31 percent of the receiving yards among Buccaneers' wide receivers. With Egbuka in concussion protocol, that workload will be taken on by Hurst, Tez Johnson and veteran Chris Godwin on Sunday against a Panthers defense that ranks fifth in the league in passing touchdowns allowed (six) and 18th in passing yards allowed per game (222.0). Hurst -- a third-round selection of the Buccaneers in the 2026 NFL Draft -- has an 11-168-1 receiving line on 22 targets through six regular-season games.
Ted Hurst III — Active
Hurst matched his season high in catches and receiving yards against Pittsburgh, reeling in multiple passes for the fourth time this year. The wide receiver has now caught 11 of 22 targets for 168 yards over six contests to begin his first NFL campaign, and he could receive a boost if Baker Mayfield (thumb) returns to action in Week 7 versus Carolina.
Ted Hurst III — Active
Hurst saw at least three targets in each of the first four games of the regular season, but he did not see a pass from Jalon Daniels during Thursday's game, and the former's 33 offensive snaps were a distant third among Bucs wideouts behind Emeka Egbuka (64) and Chris Godwin (63). Hurst will take an 8-128-1 receiving line (16 targets) into Tampa Bay's Week 6 home game against Pittsburgh, and for now, it looks like Daniels will remain as the starter while Baker Mayfield (thumb) continues to recover from his injury.
Ted Hurst III — Active
Hurst has seen three targets in consecutive weeks. While the third-round rookie did not score as he did in Week 3, he doubled his receptions while garnering attention from new starting quarterback Jalon Daniels.
Ted Hurst III — Active
Hurst made the most of his one catch, notching his first career touchdown on a 40-yard deep ball from quarterback Baker Mayfield in the first quarter. The wide receiver has now caught six of 13 targets for 103 yards and a touchdown over the Bucs' first three regular-season games. Mayfield suffered a thumb injury in the fourth quarter and seems likely to miss action moving forward, so Hurst and the rest of Tampa Bay's offense may have a tough time getting into a rhythm with backup quarterback Jalon Daniels likely at the helm in Week 4 against the Packers.
