Report: Bucs LT Tristan Wirfs (knee) to miss start of season

The Buccaneers will be without All-Pro left tackle Tristan Wirfs to start the season, ESPN reported Wednesday.

Wirfs, 26, had arthroscopic surgery on Tuesday on the right knee he injured last season, per multiple reports.

Wirfs will have to miss at least four games if he begins the campaign on the physically unable to perform list.

A four-time Pro Bowl selection and two-time first-team All-Pro, Wirfs started 16 games in 2024 and has started all 79 of his games since Tampa Bay drafted him 13th overall in 2020.

Wirfs signed a five-year, $140.6 million extension last August. He carries a $11.5 million cap hit in 2025, a figure that jumps to $36.3 million in 2026.
