Enter Hurst, the 2026 third-round pick, who wowed at various points of training camp with acrobatic sideline receptions and flashed impressive burst (4.42 40-yard dash) for his 6-3 frame. If the Buccaneers only ask Hurst to be a lanky field-stretching boundary receiver who can win contested catches they'll be a better offense for it.

Hurst has upside if Egbuka/McMillan injuries linger; hard to project weekly.

The 2026 third-round pick for the Buccaneers wowed at various points of training camp with acrobatic sideline receptions and flashed impressive burst (4.42 40-yard dash) for his 6-3 frame. Emeka Egbuka is dealing with a turf toe injury that 'hopefully' will have him ready for Week 1, and No. 3 wideout Jalen McMillan has been limited through training camp with a knee injury that could impact his availability for the season opener. If the Buccaneers ask Hurst to be a lanky field-stretching boundary receiver who can win contested catches, they'll be a better offense for it, but that's a hard role to project week to week in terms of fantasy impact. Among this tier of deep waiver-wire pickups, Hurst warrants looking first given the potential, but there's no reason to be aggressive if he's available.
