YouTube star Mr. Beast appears at Bucs’ Week 7 game vs. Falcons

One of the internet’s most famous content creators stopped by Raymond James Stadium to watch the Bucs play the Falcons in Week 7.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had an internet celebrity present at their Week 7 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

Famous YouTuber Mr. Beast, whose YouTube channel currently has the most subscribers for an individual on the platform with 202 million, is present at the team’s game against the Falcons. He was seen during pregame wearing a full Bucs uniform and interacting with fans by the team’s tunnel a few hours before game time. He posted a video on the Bucs’ official social media account, jokingly saying that Tampa Bay let him “join the team for a day.”

Mr. Beast focuses on a variety of content on his YouTube channel, and videos with celebrities or notable industries is the norm. While it’s unknown exactly why he attended the game, it’s possible that the Bucs could feature in one of his upcoming videos.

Sunday’s Week 7 game against the Falcons is a major NFC South swing

Tampa Bay’s playoff percentage drastically swings depending on the result of Sunday’s matchup against Atlanta.

It isn’t just an ordinary game for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday — the fate of the division is at stake.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are looking to make the playoffs this year, and to do that, they’ll likely have to win the division. Whether they can do that could depend on their Week 7 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, as the odds shift heavily depending on the result of that game at Raymond James Stadium.

Pro Football Focus has the Bucs with a 73% chance to make the playoffs with a victory over the Falcons, but just a 40% chance to make it with a loss. The Falcons’ schedule remains very favorable after this game, while the Bucs still have to play the 49ers, Bills and Jaguars in their first-place schedule from last year. As such, winning this game may be imperative to keep Tampa Bay’s playoff hopes alive.

As it stands, the Bucs hold the lead in the NFC South with a 3-2 record. The Falcons are 3-3, so a win for Tampa Bay would have it two losses up on both the Saints and the Falcons. A loss would see Atlanta go one win up on the Bucs, though, so head coach Todd Bowles and his crew will have to be on their a-game heading into this matchup.

Bucs Week 7 Final Injury Report: Two Tampa Bay players listed as questionable

No player between the Bucs and the Falcons are ruled out for Sunday.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers remain healthy heading into Week 7’s matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, and the injuries they do have don’t appear to be too serious.

The biggest question after Thursday’s report was the absence of defensive tackle [autotag]Vita Vea[/autotag], who seemed to take a setback after having limited practice on Wednesday. He was back to limited practice on Friday, however, and head coach Todd Bowles seemed to imply after practice Friday that his foot is simply sore and that giving it 48 hours likely has him playing on Sunday. The other questionable player is outside linebacker [autotag]Anthony Nelson[/autotag], who has had two weeks of full practice but now needs to clear concussion protocol to play.

Here is what the small injury report looks like:

After Falcons DT Calais Campbell took a rest day on Monday, no player has been on Atlanta’s injury report.
