Emeka Egbuka Named to Midseason All-Rookie Team

CBS Sports included Buccaneers' wide receiver Emeka Egbuka in its Midseason All-Rookie Team , noting his 562 receiving yards (seventh-most in NFL) and five receiving touchdowns (tied for eighth-most in NFL). Egbuka is the only player in league history with 25-plus receptions, 400-plus receiving yards and five-plus receiving touchdowns through the first five games of his career. He has ignited a Tampa Bay offense decimated by injuries and has taken the NFL by storm with his route-running acumen and ability to manipulate coverage with subtleties. Egbuka controls the catch point and has elite ball-tracking skills. He is in contention for Offensive Rookie of the Year for his contributions on the field in his inaugural campaign.
