As a long-standing fanatic of the Buccaneers, I must confess that this latest string of defeats has left me reeling. The team’s recent loss to the San Francisco 49ers, coupled with Tristan Wirfs‘ knee injury, has dealt yet another blow to our already faltering hopes for the season.
After their impressive Week 6 victory against the New Orleans Saints, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have yet to secure another win. Unfortunately, their fortunes didn’t change in their recent matchup with the San Francisco 49ers, which extended their losing streak to four NFL games. Additionally, during this game, star offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs was forced to leave due to an injury. However, details about the nature of his injury are not clear at this time.
Here are all the details regarding Wirfs’ latest ailment, including his estimated return.
How did Tristan Wirfs get injured?
Tristan Wirfs sustained a knee injury in his side’s recent 20-23 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
In the final seconds of the first half, while protecting a pass, Wirfs found himself involved in an unfortunate event. Seeing Bredeson of the 49ers trying to help Jordan Elliott, the 25-year-old NFL player stepped in. Unfortunately, during this intervention, Wirfs collided with Elliott, leading to an injury on Elliott’s knee.
Tristan Wirfs suffered a sprain on his right knee’s medial collateral ligament, causing him to be removed from the game. In his place, Justin Skule stepped in.
When will Tristan Wirfs return to play for Buccaneers?
As I type this, it’s still unclear the exact severity of Tristan Wirfs’ injury. But, he has an upcoming MRI scan that could provide more clarity on his health status for fans to follow.
In the current scenario, Wirfs is anticipated to miss several upcoming matches, but Baker Mayfield has shown confidence in his teammate’s healing process. “Sometimes, the season can unfold this way,” the quarterback stated. “I hope it’s not a severe injury for Tristian. I recently saw him, and he appeared to be in a good frame of mind at least. So, that’s a plus.” (Paraphrased from Tampa Bay Times)
The healing time for MCL injuries varies based on their degree of seriousness. Generally, less severe MCL sprains might recover within 1-3 weeks, whereas significant injuries could sideline a player for 6 weeks or longer.
In their upcoming NFL game this season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will meet the New York Giants on the field.
