Emeka Egbuka had a special start to his rookie season.
But lately, it hasn't been the same for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The same was true early on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers in a crucial NFC South Division matchup.

Is Emeka Egbuka playing today?
Yes, Egbuka is playing.
He's out there in his No. 2.
The problem is that Baker Mayfield has just started to throw elsewhere.
Mike Evans had two catches on the opening drive, including a 1-yard touchdown.
Jalen McMillan and Chris Godwin also had a catch apiece, too.
Egbuka may get going a bit, but it doesn't seem like he's lined up for a big game at this point.
