Sits out Friday's practice
Egbuka (concussion/foot) was not practicing Friday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
After logging a limited practice Thursday, Egbuka's absence Friday represents a step back in his concussion recovery ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons. He's also still dealing with his previous foot injury. If Egbuka can't play Sunday against the Falcons, Tez Johnson and rookie Ted Hurst would be in line for increased snaps alongside veteran Chris Godwin at receiver.
