  "account": "The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football in Week 9, and wide receiver Emeka Egbuka should be available for action despite a foot injury. According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, Egbuka is listed as questionable for the matchup, but he has returned to practice and is ready to play after missing two contests due to his ailment. Egbuka last took the field in the Bucs' overtime loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, catching seven passes for 48 yards and a touchdown on 16 targets. Despite his absence, Egbuka remains the team's leading receiver with 28 catches and 240 yards through the season. However, his production falls short of his rookie year totals, when he registered 63 catches for 938 yards and six touchdowns. The Buccaneers' passing attack has been lackluster this season, ranking dead-last with only 1,180 passing yards. In their most recent game, they completed no passes against the Atlanta Falcons before managing a 16-0 victory fueled by 324 rushing yards and three touchdowns. Egbuka's return could provide a much-needed boost to Baker Mayfield's accuracy as they head to Chicago.",
