Tristan Wirfs Is Out Sunday For Miami Game
December 26th, 2025
Out.
It seems to be getting darker all the time.
Bucs All-Pro left tackle Tristan Wirfs will not play Sunday against Miami in a game critical to keeping the Bucs’ postseason hopes alive.
That’s the word from Bucs coach Todd Bowles today. Also, Bowles said outside linebacker Anthony Nelson (knee) will be out and defensive lineman Calijah Kancey, who is in the 21-day window to return from injured reserve, will not be activated.
Wirfs has a bum toe. In his place, rookie tackle Ben Chukwuma is expected to start. He made his first career start three weeks ago against New Orleans and help up rather well.
