Could Buccaneers-Eagles game get canceled due to Hurricane Helene? Everything we know about game at Raymond James Stadium

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday in a rematch of their 2023 NFL Wild Card round matchup where the Bucs dismantled the Eagles to finish their tumultuous season and Jason Kelce's career.

Raymond James Stadium will be the venue for this game again, but some serious issues have shown up in recent days. Helene, a Category 4 hurricane, landed on Thursday night in the Big Bend region of the Florida Gulf Coast and created "life-threatening conditions," according to the National Hurricane Center.

This could be enough reason to suspend the upcoming game, but Anthony R. Wood and Gabriela Carroll of the Philadelphia Inquirer note that neither the NFL nor the teams involved in this clash have entertained the possibility of postponing or moving the game. It would only happen if the stadium was used as a disaster relief site.

More than that, when the game starts, the hurricane will be well away from the stadium.

This game can become the turning point of the season for these teams after a rocky start.

Where to watch Buccaneers-Eagles this Sunday?

This Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Philadelphia Eagles matchup will be a special game with a special broadcast team.

The Wild Card round rematch will be aired regionally on FOX with Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady calling it. Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi will be reporting from the sidelines. It's scheduled to start at 1 p.m. ET.

The Buccaneers will host the Eagles coming off a 26-7 humbling loss to the Denver Broncos. Bo Nix dominated them with his rushing game, getting 47 rushing yards and one touchdown.

After putting on a show against the Washington Commanders and beating a contender like the Detroit Lions, Tampa succumbed to Sean Payton and company.

As for the Eagles, they needed Saquon Barkley to save them with two fourth-quarter touchdowns to beat the Saints, 15-12, after NOLA had scored more than 40 points in each of their prior two games.

This can be an important game for these teams, as Baker Mayfield and Jalen Hurts must demonstrate more than they did last Sunday.
