Buccaneers' Ryan Jensen: Won't fully participate immediately
Jensen (knee) has been medically cleared to practice in training camp but won't be able to fully participate until his tolerance is assessed, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
The veteran offensive lineman suffered tears of his ACL, MCL and PCL along with a fracture and a bone chip at the beginning of last year's training camp and somehow was able to recover without surgery. Jensen admirably made it back on the field for the wild-card loss to the Cowboys in January despite not being at full health, and the team will "monitor him and we'll see how the knee responds" as camp begins, according to head coach Todd Bowles.

Buccaneers' Ryan Jensen: Impresses in minicamp
Jensen, who missed the entire 2022 regular season due to a knee injury, ran and did work on the blocking sleds without any sign of limping during the team's recent minicamp, Joey Knight of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Jensen was able to garner active status for the wild-card loss to the Cowboys in January after recovering from three torn ligaments without surgery. However, Jensen was held out of drills during OTAs and minicamp, and despite the encouraging report regarding his activity level, head coach Todd Bowles remains non-committal about whether the same will apply at the beginning of training camp.

Buccaneers' Ryan Jensen: Not participating Tuesday
Jensen (knee) is present but not participating Tuesday at OTAs, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Jensen missed the entire 2022 regular season while rehabbing from a left knee injury but was activated off injured reserve ahead of the Buccaneers' wild-card loss to Dallas in January. It's unclear if he suffered a setback during his lone appearance of the campaign or he's simply being cautious this offseason, but it's concerning to see the veteran center unavailable and sporting a brace again.

Buccaneers' Ryan Jensen: Won't play Sunday
Head coach Todd Bowles said Wednesday that Jensen (knee) won't play Week 17 against the Panthers, despite being designated to return from injured reserve, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Though Jensen's 21-day activation window officially started Wednesday, the standout center will require more than a week of practice time before being cleared to play after having been sidelined since late July with a significant left knee injury. Robert Hainsey should serve as the Buccaneers' center in Week 17, but Jensen could be ready to go for the Jan. 8 regular-season finale in Atlanta along with a potential playoff run.

Buccaneers' Ryan Jensen: Receives activation window
The Buccaneers designated Jensen (knee) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Jensen is now slated to resume practicing Wednesday, after he suffered a significant knee injury during training camp earlier this year. The 319-pounder is eligible to make his campaign debut in the New Year's Day matchup against the Panthers, but Tampa Bay will likely ease Jensen into the starting rotation once he's eventually given the green light.
