Bond re-signed with the Buccaneers on Tuesday and is fully recovered from a foot injury he sustained during the preseason, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bond was placed in the Bucs' injured reserve prior to the season kicking off before eventually reaching an injury settlement. He is now expected to compete with Adarius Taylor for the strongside linebacker role.

Bond (foot) and the Buccaneers came to terms on an injury settlement Tuesday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bond was previously placed on injured reserve by Tampa due to a plantar fasciitis in his right foot. The 25-year-old is now free to look for a special-teams of depth role elsewhere in the league.

Bond will be placed on injured reserve due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bond had been spotted wearing a walking boot after suffering an injury during the Buccaneers' third preseason tilt, so a season-ending issue wasn't out of the question. Sixth-round pick Jack Cichy is slated to make the 53-man roster and provide depth at outside linebacker with Bond sidelined.

Bond was wearing a walking boot on his right foot Sunday, Greg Auman of The Athletic Tampa Bay reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bond left Friday's preseason game against the Lions with a foot injury. The severity of his condition appears not too serious, but there's reason for concern. His availability for the final exhibition showdown Thursday against the Jaguars is unclear.

Bond won't return to Friday's preseason game against the Lions due to a foot injury.
EDGE Analysis
Bond's injury mainly affects the Bucs' depth at linebacker, which is already struggling to stay healthy, as he logs a majority of his snaps on special teams. Updates on the third-year pro's status should surface over the weekend, if not immediately after the game.

Bond (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bond's injury lasted one week. With Kendell Beckwith (ankle) and Adarius Taylor (lower leg) sitting out, Bond will log meaningful snaps in practice and possibly Friday's preseason outing against the Lions. Once Beckwith's healthy, Bond will compete for a depth role against Taylor and rookie sixth-round pick Jack Cichy.

Bond did not participate in Monday's practice due to an undisclosed injury, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear exactly what is ailing Bond, as this is the first report that the linebacker has been sidelined. Consider him to be day-to-day until the Buccaneers can provide more specifics on his status.

Bond (ankle) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Because of Friday's doubtful designation this isn't much of a surprise, and it won't shake up the Bucs' defensive dynamic since he has just 14 tackles (12 solo) through 14 games.

Bond (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Saints, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bond's only practice of the week was a limited session Friday, which wasn't enough to earn the questionable tag. Nigel Harris and Riley Bullough would serve as the Buccaneers reserve linebackers Sunday with Bond unlikely to play.

Bond (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
The reserve linebacker suffered a stinger against the Falcons in Week 15, but he was free of any injury designation by the start of Week 16 prep. He proceeded to log 22 total snaps (six defensive, 16 special teams) against the Panthers last Sunday, so the injury appears to have been one he sustained during that contest. With Adarius Glanton (lower leg) on injured reserve, Bond's availability has a bit more importance than it normally would as far as positional depth is concerned. Thursday's injury report should shed further light on what direction he's trending in for the regular-season finale against the Saints.
