Cappa reclaimed his starting right guard spot during June minicamp and should be able to practice without restrictions in training camp following his recovery from a fractured ankle suffered last postseason, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cappa will be entering both his third year as a starter and a contract year, the latter which should particularly afford him a heavy dose of motivation. The 2018 third-round pick was an integral part of a unit that played a key role in both the passing and running success of the Buccaneers' offense last season, with Tampa Bay ranking in the top half of the league in both RB yards per carry (4.6) and adjusted sack rate (4.3 percent) per Football Outsiders.

EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old missed the final three games of Tampa Bay's Super Bowl run after suffering a fractured ankle during the wild-card win over Washington, but he's now fully healthy six month later. Cappa should reclaim his starting job at right guard in 2021 for the Buccaneers.

EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old will be sidelined for the rest of the postseason if the fracture is confirmed, and he'll undergo additional testing over the next couple days. Ted Larsen stepped in at right guard Saturday and should remain there while Cappa is sidelined.

Cappa (elbow) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Cappa suffered the injury, but he was forced to leave the game in the third quarter and has yet to return to the field. As long as the 2018 third-round pick is sidelined, look for Earl Watford to take over at the right guard position.
