Won't play Week 2
Kancey (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Lions, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Kancey is now in line to miss his second consecutive game in Week 2 as the 23-year-old continues to recover from the calf injury he sustained one week ago. Expect William Gholston and Ben Stille to see increased work with the Buccaneers' first-team defense in Kancey's stead.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Buccaneers' rookie first-round pick is drawing comparisons to Aaron Donald, but the even more Tampa-centric one of Gerald McCoy may be very appropriate as well. The Pittsburgh product is listed at 281 pounds - particularly light for a defensive tackle - but he ran a 4.67 40-yard dash at the combine and compiled 91 tackles and 16 sacks over his three college seasons. Kancey should have a chance to play a significant role in the defensive line rotation right from the start of his pro career.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Difference maker in 2024
Gilberto Manzano of SI.com believes that Kancey showed flashes of high-level play toward the end of his rookie season and is set to take a leap in production in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Kancey's rookie campaign got off to a slow start when a calf injury sustained in training camp was aggravated in Week 1, causing the 2023 first-round pick to miss the following three games. From there on out, however, Kancey proved to be a reliable interior presence for the Bucs' defense, and he played at least 60 percent of defensive snaps in 12 of the last 15 games of the season, including playoffs. He showed his first-round potential during the postseason, when he tallied six tackles, including 1.5 sacks, over two playoff games as he and Vita Vea formed a dominant defensive front. Across 14 regular-season games Kancey tallied 26 tackles, including 4.0 sacks.
