"We'll see what the prognosis is as we go forward and take some more tests," head coach Todd Bowles said.
"It's football. We'll wait for the results to come in. Right now, we're hopeful. So, we'll wait and see before we say all is lost right now, but he's having a great camp. He's a great player. Just wish the best for him."
A third-round draft pick in 2023, Diaby delivered 7.5 sacks, 38 tackles and two fumble recoveries in 17 games (seven starts) during his rookie campaign.
Diaby and veteran Lavonte David are the Bucs' projected starters at outside linebacker for the Bucs, who open the preseason on Aug. 10 at Cincinnati.
