    Week 5 of the NFL season begins with a big clash in the NFC South between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Atlanta Falcons. The 3-1 Buccaneers can take a big jump in the division race with a win over the 2-2 Falcons and a mini-bye week before visiting the 2-2 Saints in Week 6. The Falcons beat the Saints last week and could grab an early lead in the division with wins over Tampa Bay and New Orleans as the season passes the quarter mark.

    Baker Mayfield is enjoying a resurgence in Tampa Bay this season, ranking second in the NFL in touchdown passes and sixth in passing yards in Week 5. Wide receiver Mike Evans, who had limited practice on Monday and Tuesday because of calf and knee injuries, was not listed on Wednesday's injury report and is expected to play on Thursday Night Football. For Atlanta, offensive lineman Kaleb McGary (knee) and running back Bijan Robinson (hamstring) were in full practice Wednesday after limited participation earlier in the week.
