    Chris Godwin Continues To Recover From Knee Injury

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) said he continues to recover from knee surgery to fix a torn ACL that he suffered last season, but he has been feeling better as he progresses this year. Godwin feels that he's making small improvements each week, but it's still a fluid process throughout the season. The 26-year-old is the WR16 entering Week 10 against the Seattle Seahawks in London, but his production could increase in the second half of the season as he gets closer to 100 percent health. Godwin currently has 42 receptions on 65 targets for 404 yards in seven games, but he's still searching for his first touchdown of the season. He'll remain in WR2 territory for fantasy managers this Sunday against Seattle.

    Chris Godwin, Russell Gage Will Play In Week 6

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Chris Godwin (hip, knee), Russell Gage (ankle) and Breshad Perriman (hamstring, knee) are all off the Week 6 injury report and will play on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Julio Jones (knee) is doubtful, but this is the healthiest Tampa's receiving corps has been so far this season. Mike Evans, Godwin and Gage will operate as quarterback Tom Brady's top three receivers, while the team is also getting tight end Cameron Brate (concussion) back. Evans and Godwin are must-starts for fantasy managers against a Steelers defense that has allowed the most touchdowns to the position through the first five weeks.

    Chris Godwin, Russell Gage Ready To Play Against Falcons

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Chris Godwin (knee) and Russell Gage (hamstring) were both taken off the final injury report on Friday and will suit up in Week 5 against the Atlanta Falcons. Godwin tweaked his hamstring in the season opener and finally returned in the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, catching seven of his 10 targets for 59 yards while playing a season-high 83 percent of the offensive snaps. In a good matchup against the Falcons defense, the 26-year-old should be considered a WR2 as one of quarterback Tom Brady's favorite targets. Gage was questionable for the first four games of the season, but he hasn't missed a game and could be the No. 3 receiver for Tampa on Sunday if Julio Jones (knee) is unable to go.

    Chris Godwin Targeted 10 Times In Return

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) caught seven of 10 targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 41-31 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The 26-year-old returned to action in Week 4 after missing the last two games due to a hamstring injury. He briefly exited the game with a leg injury in the third quarter but was able to return later in the contest. Godwin was able to play most of the game without any setbacks and saw plenty of usage in the first game, back with 10 targets. Godwin will likely be limited in practice this week but is expected to be active and is a strong WR2/3 against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 5.

    Chris Godwin Will Return For Sunday Night Football

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) will officially suit up for Sunday's meeting against the Kansas City Chiefs. The veteran had been trending toward playing, although the team wanted to test things out pregame to be sure. Julio Jones (knee), Mike Evans (suspension), and Russell Gage (hamstring) are also back, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much out of Godwin in Week 4, especially since his snaps may be limited.

    Chris Godwin Expected To Return On Sunday Night

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) is expected to play in Week 4 against the Chiefs. However, the veteran will test things out pregame before he's given an definitive designation. Godwin was heading into the season fresh off a knee injury. Yet, he injured his hamstring during the season opener versus the Cowboys and hasn't been seen since. With an official word surrounding Godwin's status not expected to come until after the first set of games begin, fantasy managers should consider holding him out another week if possible, especially since he may be limited anyway.

    Chris Godwin Ruled Out Against Packers

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) and defensive end Akiem Hicks (foot) have been ruled out for Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers after they both missed practice all week. Godwin will miss his second straight game after tweaking his hammy in the season opener. With Mike Evans suspended this Sunday and Julio Jones (knee) also a game-time decision, quarterback Tom Brady could be down to Russell Gage, Breshad Perriman and Scotty Miller as his top three receiving targets against Green Bay. Because Godwin has yet to practice since his injury in Week 1, fantasy managers should already be considering him questionable to play in a Week 4 showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs.

    Chris Godwin Doesn't Practice Wednesday

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) didn't practice on Wednesday. Godwin strained his hamstring in the season opener and didn't play in the Week 2 win over the New Orleans Saints. He's off to a bad start so far this week, but he has two more chances to return to the practice field, which would give him a chance to return this weekend against the Green Bay Packers. Mike Evans is suspended for one game and Julio Jones (knee), who missed Week 2, is a question mark as well. Tampa's receiving corps continues to be extremely banged up, but Godwin could be heavily targeted by quarterback Tom Brady if he's able to return on Sunday against the Packers. Check back later this week to see how much of a chance Godwin has at suiting up.

    Chris Godwin Ruled Out Against Saints

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) didn't practice all week and has officially been ruled out for the Week 2 divisional clash against the New Orleans Saints. Left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) is also doubtful after not practicing all week. Godwin is no lock to return in Week 3 after injuring his hamstring in the season-opening win over the Dallas Cowboys last Sunday night. The Bucs are extremely banged up at the position, with Mike Evans (calf), Julio Jones (knee) and Russell Gage (hamstring) all questionable as well. All three of Evans, Jones and Gage were able to practice on Friday, though, so they are trending in the right direction to serve in three-receiver sets on Sunday against New Orleans.

    Chris Godwin Still In Play For Week 2

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) and left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) are still in play to suit up in Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints. However, if Bowles had to guess, he said it's unlikely that either plays on Sunday. Expect both Godwin and Smith to be listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report. The 26-year-old Godwin missed practice on both Wednesday and Thursday after getting hurt in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Fantasy managers should be looking elsewhere in Week 2. With Mike Evans (calf) and Julio Jones (knee) also banged up, Russell Gage could be in for heavy target volume in this divisional clash against New Orleans.

    Chris Godwin Not At Practice

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) and left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) were not seen at practice on Wednesday. Godwin was actually active in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys after suffering an ACL tear late last season, but he quickly injured his hamstring after catching all three of his targets for 35 yards. However, the Bucs don't think Godwin's injury is as serious as they previously believed it was, but he could still miss a few weeks of action. Fantasy managers should be preparing as though the 26-year-old won't be active in Week 2 against the division-rival New Orleans Saints. If Godwin misses this Sunday's game, Mike Evans, Julio Jones and Russell Gage will be starting in three-wide sets for quarterback Tom Brady.

    Chris Godwin Expected To Miss Time

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin suffered a hamstring strain and is expected to miss at least a few weeks. The team is optimistic that the injury isn't serious, but it'd be surprising to see Tampa rush him back on the field given what is at stake later in the year. In the wake of his injury, move Mike Evans, Julio Jones, and Russell Gage up in weekly rankings. Cameron Brate, Breshad Perriman, and Leonard Fournette could see more targets, too. Ultimately, this doesn't affect Tom Brady's fantasy value too much, as there is no shortage of firepower on this offense.

    Chris Godwin Ruled Out For Remainder Of Week 1

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) was injured in the first half of the team's Week 1 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys and will not return. Godwin was questionable to start the game as he has been recovering from an ACL tear suffered late last season. He suited up and was involved immediately, catching all three of his targets and tallying 35 yards. Unfortunately, Godwin sustained a hamstring injury in the second quarter and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest. The severity of the injury is currently unknown and more information should be revealed after the game.

    Chris Godwin Active For Sunday Night Football

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. Under normal circumstances, Godwin would be a lock in all fantasy formats. However, considering he's coming off an ACL tear from last season, there's a chance he'll be on a snap count. Yet, the veteran still has plenty of upside despite the potential for decreased playing time, so he deserves some consideration from fantasy managers.

    Chris Godwin Could Play On Snap Count Sunday

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) is expected to be active on Sunday as he makes a quick return from last season's ACL tear, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. There is a very real possibility that Godwin could be on a snap count for the season opener. Without playing a full slate of snaps, Godwin's fantasy value is capped around the mid-to-low WR3 tier. On the other hand, Julio Jones and Russell Gage will benefit when he's off the field. For Week 1, Mike Evans is the only Buccaneers receiver that fantasy managers should feel confident starting.

    Chris Godwin Listed As Questionable On Buccaneers’ Final Injury Report

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) returned to practice on Friday but was again spotted in a non-contact jersey. He is officially listed as questionable for the team's Week 1 away matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Godwin himself said that he expects to be a game-time decision, so fantasy managers should make other plans as the Bucs do not play until Sunday night. Even if Godwin suits up, it's unclear to what extent he will be utilized. When fully healthy, Godwin will be an excellent option both for fantasy and quarterback Tom Brady, but in the meantime, we should see a heavy dose of Mike Evans, Leonard Fournette, Julio Jones, and Russell Gage.

    Chris Godwin Expects To Be Game-Time Decision

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) didn't practice on Thursday and expects his decision to come down to Sunday night before the Week 1 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Godwin has made nice progress from a torn ACL last year and ditched his knee brace earlier this week. He was able to practice on Wednesday, but his missed practice on Thursday is a reminder that he's no lock to suit up for the season opener. Still, based on where the 26-year-old was selected in fantasy drafts, he could end up being a steal in 2022 after recording 1,000 receiving yards in just 14 games last year. Godwin is an extremely risky WR4/flex in Week 1, especially with the game being on Sunday night.

    Chris Godwin Not Seen At Practice

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) was not at practice on Thursday at the portion open to the media. Godwin put in a full practice on Wednesday and has ditched the brace for his surgically repaired right knee, so this is a step back. However, the 26-year-old could end up being listed as a limited participant on Thursday's final injury report. Regardless, it's a reminder that he's not a lock to play on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 1. Godwin is a tough call for fantasy lineups with his game being on Sunday night, but if he plays, he'll be a risky WR4/flex in danger of having his snaps limited. But when he's at full health, he'll be one of quarterback Tom Brady's favorite weapons next to Mike Evans.

    Chris Godwin Gets In A Full Practice

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Godwin ditched his knee brace earlier this week and actually has a shot to suit up in the Week 1 regular season opener this Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. The 26-year-old suffered a torn ACL and sprained MCL in his right knee in Week 15 of last year, but as soon as he's ready, he's expected to return to his role as one of quarterback Tom Brady's favorite receivers next to Mike Evans. There's a chance he could have his snaps limited if he plays on Sunday evening, though, making him a shaky WR4/flex to open the regular season. If he's truly questionable, it'll make him an even riskier fantasy play with the game coming on Sunday night.

    Chris Godwin Doesn't Know If He'll Play In Week 1

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee), who was seen practicing without a brace on his right leg on Monday, is still uncertain whether he'll play in the Week 1 regular season opener on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. "I would imagine I have the final say. It's going to come down to feel. Because I understand what I'm capable of doing on the field when healthy," Godwin said. We'll have a better idea of his status when the team begins practice preparations on Wednesday, but as of right now, Godwin appears to be truly questionable. With the game being on Sunday night, it will make it even more difficult for fantasy managers. If the 26-year-old does suit up, he could be on a snap count, making him a risky WR4/flex option. Julio Jones and Russell Gage will have bigger roles behind Mike Evans if Godwin is inactive against Dallas.

    Chris Godwin Practicing Without Knee Brace

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) was seen practicing on Monday without a brace on his surgically repaired right knee. It's another step in the right direction for Godwin, but it still remains to be seen if he'll be active for Week 1 of the regular season on Sept. 11 against the Dallas Cowboys. If he actually suits up on Sunday, Godwin will be a risky WR4/5 for fantasy managers in the first game of the season with a possibly limited snap count. Still, the 26-year-old could wind up being an excellent value in fantasy drafts this year if he's able to return quickly as one of quarterback Tom Brady's top targets through the air. Godwin topped 1,000 yards for the second time in his career in 2021 in just 14 regular season games.

    Chris Godwin Misses Practice Thursday, Likely Out Saturday

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) was held out of Thursday's practice, which would have marked his final opportunity to get up to game speed before Saturday's preseason finale vs. Indianapolis. Godwin has been sidelined since he sustained a torn ACL and sprained MCL last December, which prematurely cut short another strong season. The 26-year-old is set to factor significantly into Tampa Bay's offense once cleared, as he hauled in 98 receptions for 1,103 yards last season with Tom Brady under center. Head coach Todd Bowles indicated that healthy Bucs starters will play in the preseason finale, but Godwin is facing his next potential game action coming Sept. 11 when the team opens the regular season vs. the Cowboys.

    Chris Godwin Dons Non-Contact Jersey At Practice

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) has cleared another hurdle in his attempt to return to action, getting to suit up for 11-on-11 work during Monday's practice. The veteran receiver rocked a non-contact jersey and participated in run plays, a progression from his 7-on-7 work earlier this month. Godwin was able to amass 98 receptions and 1,103 receiving yards last season despite having his year cut short due to the torn ACL he is in the midst of rehabbing. Tampa Bay hasn't made an official call on one of quarterback Tom Brady's favorite targets for Week 1 against Dallas, but fantasy managers can anticipate some snap restrictions in the early portion of the year.
