Ruled out for Week 17
Godwin (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Godwin hasn't been able to practice since he suffered the hamstring injury Week 15. He was one of the top breakout stars of the 2019 season, hauling in 86 of 121 targets for 1,333 yards and nine touchdowns in 14 games. Godwin heads into Week 17 ranking second among qualified pass catchers in yards per game (95.2) and fourth in yards per target (11.0), with teammate Mike Evans (89.0 YPG, 9.8 YPT) not too far behind. Jameis Winston will have Breshad Perriman and Justin Watson as his top wide…read more

Absent for another practice
Godwin (hamstring) wasn't spotted on the field during Thursday's practice and will go down as a non-participant on the Buccaneers' official report, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Tampa Bay also listed Godwin as a non-participant when the team released its initial Week 17 report Wednesday, but his activity was merely estimated since the team didn't hold an actual practice Christmas Day. Unless Godwin surprisingly takes the field in some capacity for the Bucs' final practice of the week Friday, he'll be highly unlikely to suit up for Sunday's season finale versus the Falcons.

Not participating to begin week
Godwin (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on the Buccaneers' estimated practice report Wednesday.
Analysis: Tampa Bay didn't hold a practice Wednesday due to the holiday, but it doesn't sound like Godwin would have been able to get on the field if the team had scheduled a workout. While Godwin will have two more opportunities to work through the injury and practice in some fashion, his early chances of playing in the season finale Sunday against the Falcons don't appear promising.

Officially out for Week 16
Coach Bruce Arians ruled Godwin (hamstring) out for Saturday's game against the Texans, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The news comes as no real surprise after Arians indicated after last week's win over the Lions that Godwin's hamstring injury was similar to the one suffered the prior week by Mike Evans, who was ultimately moved to injured reserve Wednesday. For now, the Buccaneers will take a wait-and-see approach with Godwin for the Dec. 29 regular-season finale against the Falcons, but the third-year wideout's absence for Week 16 will loom large. Along with Godwin and Evans, the Buccaneers' receiving corps…read more

Ends week without practicing
Godwin (hamstring) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With Godwin having failed to practice in any fashion Tuesday through Thursday, he'll carry an injury designation into Saturday's matchup with the Texans if coach Bruce Arians doesn't officially rule the receiver out when he meets with the media at the conclusion of practice. In addition to Godwin's expected absence Saturday, the Buccaneers will be missing Mike Evans (hamstring) and Scott Miller (hamstring), who were moved to injured reserve earlier this week. That leaves Breshad Perriman and…read more

No practice reps Wednesday
Godwin (hamstring) was held out of practice Wednesday.
Analysis: The results of Tuesday's MRI on Godwin's hamstring are unknown, but the wide receiver hasn't stepped on the practice field yet this week. The Buccaneers are three days out from their Week 16 matchup with the Texans, so Godwin seems to be in danger of donning street clothes this weekend. With Mike Evans and Scott Miller landing on injured reserve Tuesday due to their own hamstring injuries, Tampa Bay may have to rely on Breshad Perriman and Justin Watson as its top options at wide receiver.…read more

Not practicing Tuesday
Godwin (hamstring) isn't participating in Tuesday's practice, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Godwin was scheduled to undergo an MRI on Tuesday, so the Buccaneers will presumably hold him out of practice until his test results are known. Even if the MRI clears Godwin of any significant damage to his hamstring, the Buccaneers don't seem to be counting on the wideout making it back on a short week, as Tampa Bay hosts the Texans on Saturday. With Mike Evans and Scott Miller also sidelined to begin the week with hamstring injuries of their own, the Buccaneers are down to Breshad Perriman,…read more

Getting MRI on Tuesday
Godwin (hamstring) is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Tuesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After Godwin was forced out early in Sunday's 38-17 win over the Lions, coach Bruce Arians expressed concern that the wideout's hamstring injury could end up costing him some time. An official timeline for Godwin's return isn't likely to emerge until the results of the MRI are read, but fantasy managers should probably prepare themselves to be without the 23-year-old for Week 16 matchups.

Hamstring injury similar to Evans'
Coach Bruce Arians called Godwin's hamstring injury "not good" following Sunday's 38-17 win at Detroit, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Just one game removed from fellow wideout Mike Evans suffering a serious hamstring injury, the same fate befell Godwin. Prior to Godwin's departure in the third quarter, he racked up what ended up being a team-best 121 yards on his five catches (seven targets). If Godwin and Evans are out of the lineup Saturday against the Texans, their combined 17.6 targets per game on the campaign will be available for the likes of Breshad Perriman, Justin Watson and Ishmael Hyman to take on. Meanwhile, Scott…read more

Won't return Sunday
Godwin (hamstring) was carted to the locker room during Sunday's game in Detroit and won't return, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Buccaneers wide receivers are dropping like flies. First, Mike Evans sustained a serious hamstring injury Week 14 and didn't take the field Sunday. Then, second-year slot receiver Scotty Miller was ruled out of this contest with a hamstring concern of his own. Godwin himself suffered a hamstring issue, leaving Tampa Bay with just Breshad Perriman, Justin Watson and Ishmael Hyman at the position.

Bump in volume likely on tap
Godwin is likely to see an increase in his average of 8.7 targets per game with Mike Evans (hamstring) expected to miss the last three contests of the season.
Analysis: Jeremy Fowler of ESPN cited a team source in a Tuesday report that indicates Evans will be sidelined for the Buccaneers' last three games "barring unexpected improvement" in his badly pulled hamstring. Any Evans absence should equate to a bump in workload for Godwin, who was just behind his teammate's team-high pace of 9.1 targets per contest. Godwin has proven efficient with his opportunities -- he owns a solid 71.7 percent catch rate -- so a handful of additional targets in coach Bruce…read more

Paces pass catchers in win
Godwin brought in seven of nine targets for 91 yards in the Buccaneers' 38-35 win over the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin paced the Buccaneers in receptions, receiving yardage and targets for the afternoon, but on a day when Jameis Winston comfortably eclipsed 400 passing yards, the receiver's day could arguably be considered somewhat underwhelming from a fantasy perspective. Nevertheless, Godwin's yardage tally was his second highest since Week 6, so it did represent a nice bump over his average in recent weeks. Additionally, with Mike Evans having suffered what may be a serious hamstring injury Sunday,…read more

Quiet in Week 13 victory
Godwin secured four of six targets for 50 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-11 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin crashed back down to earth after his eye-popping 7-184-2 line in the Week 12 win over the Falcons, with Jameis Winston getting Breshad Perriman (5-87) and O.J. Howard (5-60) involved at an atypically high rate Sunday. Despite the downturn, Godwin has the ability to pop off on any given week, and with no fewer than six targets in nine straight games, a robust role in the offense is all but guaranteed each time he suits up. The third-year wideout will look to bounce back with better…read more

Monster performance in Week 12 win
Godwin brought in seven of eight targets for 184 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 35-22 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin got his day started in earnest with a beautiful 71-yard touchdown grab in extremely tight coverage midway through the first quarter, giving the Buccaneers their first points of the contest. He'd eventually also make another impressive catch in much closer quarters, bringing in a one-yard scoring throw in the second quarter on a play where the ball appeared to carom into his hands off the defender's body. Godwin eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark for the season with his stellar afternoon, one…read more

FInds end zone in loss
Godwin hauled in three of six targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 34-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin put together another relatively modest stat line, but his 30-yard scoring grab late in the third quarter boosted his day from a fantasy perspective. The third-year wideout hadn't crossed the goal since Week 5 in a game against this same Saints squad, and he's now failed to eclipse 100 yards in four consecutive contests. Godwin will look to build on Sunday's score against the Falcons in a Week 12 divisional showdown.

Solid six-catch effort
Godwin brought in six of 12 targets for 74 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-27 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin certainly had plenty of opportunity for a bigger game, as he paced the team in targets with what was his second-highest number of looks this season. However, the third-year wideout was only able to come up with half of them, much of it based on Jameis Winston's inaccuracy, which led to an interception on one of those misfires involving Godwin. The Penn State product has followed up a three-game streak of 100-yard efforts with three consecutive games under that threshold, so he'll look to…read more

Tallies seven grabs in Week 9 loss
Godwin brought in seven of nine targets for 61 yards in the Buccaneers' 40-34 overtime loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin saw teammate Mike Evans once again steal the spotlight, with the latter turning double-digit targets into double-digit receptions for the second straight week. Godwin did check in second in receptions, receiving yards and targets to Evans, but he was once again utilized in much closer proximity to the line of scrimmage on his way to 8.7 yards per grab. While his final line wasn't particularly remarkable, Godwin did see a good bump in production after mustering a more modest 4-43 line in…read more

Modest output in loss
Godwin hauled in four of eight targets for 43 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-23 loss to the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin took a back seat to position mate Mike Evans on the afternoon, with the latter generating an eye-popping 11-198-2 line. Godwin did check in second to Evans in receptions, receiving yards and targets, but his three-game streak of 100-yard efforts was snapped. Despite the downturn Sunday, Godwin's fantasy stock naturally remains sky high heading into a favorable Week 9 matchup against the Seahawks secondary.

Another stellar stat line
Godwin secured 10 of 12 targets for 151 yards in the Buccaneers' 37-26 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin's massive day was accomplished with excellent efficiency, with fellow wideout Mike Evans needing 17 targets to generate a 9-96 line in comparison. Despite Evans' solid line, Godwin is clearly the No. 1 receiver in the Bucs offense for all practical purposes, with his three straight 100-yard efforts and four in the last five games overall offering plenty of evidence in that regard. Godwin did fail to catch a touchdown for the first time in three games, but with 35 targets over the last…read more

Godwin (hip) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: For the third week in a row, Godwin's practice reps were impacted by a hip injury, but his elevation from LP on Wednesday to FP one day later indicates he's putting it further in the rearview mirror. The issue hasn't affected his game-day viability during that two-game stretch, as he's totaled 19 catches (on 23 targets) for 297 yards and four touchdowns. With the Panthers on tap Sunday in London, Godwin will look to replicate his 8-121-1 line on nine targets from the Buccaneers' Week 2 road win…read more

Analysis: Godwin has been nursing a lingering hip injury since Week 4, but it didn't prevent him from posting big stat lines in either of the past two games. The receiver's practice time may remain restricted again Thursday and/or Friday, but unless the Buccaneers indicate he's experienced a setback, expect Godwin to handle his usual snap load in Sunday's tilt with the Panthers.

Finds end zone twice in loss
Godwin secured seven of nine targets for 125 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 31-24 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin was one of the few bright spots for the Buccaneers in a loss that was more lopsided than the final score implies. The third-year wideout scored his pair of 26-yard touchdowns in the first and fourth quarters, the second giving Tampa some thin hope by closing the deficit to a touchdown with 13 seconds remaining. Godwin arguably has taken the mantle of top week-to-week receiver from Mike Evans, with the latter failing to bring in any of his three targets Sunday. Godwin has back-to-back…read more

Good to go
Godwin (hip) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have a designation on the final injury report for Sunday's game in New Orleans.
Analysis: There was never any real question about Godwin's chances of playing after he put up a 12-172-2 receiving line last week in Los Angeles while managing the same injury. He'll take aim at a New Orleans defense that's given up the fifth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers, yielding 10.1 yards per target and a 62.7 percent catch rate. The Saints looked much better last week against the Cowboys, however, limiting Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper to their worst games of the young season.

Bumps up to limited
Godwin (hip) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report.
Analysis: Godwin followed a DNP/DNP/LP practice regimen last week, only to tear up the Rams this past Sunday for 12 catches, 172 yards and two touchdowns on 14 targets. After being held out of practice Wednesday, he's ahead of that schedule, but it remains to be seen if he'll be able to shed his injury designation entirely ahead of Sunday's visit to New Orleans.

Hip injury lingers
Godwin didn't practice Wednesday due to a hip injury, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.
Analysis: Godwin missed a pair of practices last week due to the hip issue, but he managed to play through the injury en route to a masterful 172-yard, two-score performance in the Buccaneers' win over the Rams. If the 23-year-old is able to practice in some capacity by the end of the week, it'll bode well for his availability heading into Sunday's tilt in New Orleans.

Godwin was held out of practice Wednesday due to an unspecified issue, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Godwin missed practices Wednesday and Thursday last week due to a hip injury, though it's uncertain if the same issue is behind his absence for the first session of Week 5. The wideout managed to shake off the injury and gain an active status for Sunday's upset win over the Rams, busting out for 172 yards and two touchdowns in the Bucs' offensive explosion. The Buccaneers will reveal what is affecting Godwin this week when they release their initial injury report later Wednesday.

Godwin secured 12 of 14 targets for 172 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 55-40 win over the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin had entered Sunday sporting a questionable designation due to a hip injury, but as his final numbers indicate, he was completely unencumbered while eviscerating the Rams secondary all afternoon.

Analysis: The third-year receiver only managed one limited practice this past week, but he'll nevertheless be out there for Jameis Winston and fantasy managers Sunday.

Analysis: The Buccaneers had been treating Godwin as a game-time call after he managed only one limited practice this week, but the team is apparently optimistic with how the wideout has bounced back from the hip injury in the last couple of days. Godwin's status won't be officially confirmed until 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. EDT kickoff, but it looks like his fantasy managers can plan on having him available.

Godwin (hip) looked good Friday in his return to practice, but he'll be treated as a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup with the Rams, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Held out of practice the previous two days, Godwin apparently closed out the week with limited participation, setting him up for a 'questionable' designation on the final injury report. Coach Bruce Arians sounded optimistic after Friday's practice, but he wasn't quite willing to commit to Godwin playing in the game.

Analysis: This was more or less the expectation when Godwin wasn't spotted on the field during the part of practice open to the media. His status for Week 4 will become more clear upon the release of Friday's injury report. If Godwin begins to trend toward a DNP, Mike Evans would have a healthy share of targets available to him, while tight ends O.J. Howard and Cameron Brate would be in line for additional work.

Godwin (hip) wasn't spotted on the field at the portion of Thursday's practice that was open to the media, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Godwin appears set to miss his second straight practice in a row to begin Week 4 prep, clouding his availability for Sunday's game against the Rams. The receiver's status for the weekend likely won't be formally established until after Friday's practice, but if Godwin ends up sitting out Sunday, Mike Evans -- who busted out for eight catches for 190 yards and three touchdowns in the Week 3 loss to the Giants -- would represent the obvious top target in the Bucs' passing game.

Analysis: Godwin played 96 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's 32-31 loss to the Giants, turning four targets into three catches for 40 yards. He also didn't reach the end zone for the first time in three contests to start the season. With a hip issue in tow, Godwin's practice reps will be something to watch as the week goes on.

Makes minimal impact versus Giants
Godwin caught three of four targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 32-31 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Godwin took a back seat to Mike Evans, who exploded for 190 yards and three touchdowns in this one. He still tied for second on the team in targets, but he did little of note outside of a 20-yard gain, which accounted for half his output. Godwin totaled 174 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 15 catches across the first two games, but this was a reminder that he's still the second option in the passing attack behind Evans.

Godwin brought in eight of nine targets for 121 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 20-14 win over the Panthers on Thursday.
Analysis: Godwin's reception and receiving yardage totals led both squads for the night, as the third-year wideout displayed excellent routes and hands throughout the contest. Godwin's 20-yard touchdown reception late in the first half also erased a 6-3 deficit for the Buccaneers and served as his second in as many games to open the campaign.

Gets into end zone during loss
Godwin brought in three of six targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 31-17 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin was the only offensive player for the Buccaneers to cross the goal line and have it stick Sunday, as he logged a 10-yard scoring grab in the third quarter. The touchdown salvaged an otherwise underwhelming fantasy line for the third-year receiver, who's expected to have a significant role in coach Bruce Arians' offense.

Leads team in receiving yards
Godwin caught four of six targets for 52 yards during Friday's 13-12 preseason win over the Browns.
Analysis: With Mike Evans on the sidelines, Godwin served as the team's go-to pass catcher and commanded all his targets in just one half of play. He led the team in receiving yardage and averaged an acceptable 13.0 yards per catch despite a poor night from Jameis Winston. Godwin shouldn't play much, if any, during Thursday's preseason finale against the Cowboys, but he seems ready for what could be a very productive season.

Flashes on opening drive
Godwin brought in both of his targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 30-28 preseason loss to the Steelers on Friday.
Analysis: With Mike Evans sitting Friday, Godwin was the featured receiver on the team's successful opening drive, capping it off with a nifty nine-yard touchdown grab off a screen. The Penn State product is expected to have a massive role in head coach Bruce Arians' offense this coming season, and his production Friday was certainly an encouraging glimpse of what he could be capable of.

Headed for heavy snap counts
Coach Bruce Arians told Jim Rome that Godwin won't ever come off the field. "We can use him in the slot, we can use him out wide...so he'll never come off the field," Arians said of the wideout.
Analysis: Arians previously mentioned triple-digit receptions as a reasonable goal for Godwin, who will be needed in a larger role after the Buccaneers lost DeSean Jackson and Adam Humphries during the offseason. The team went cheap with its replacements, signing Breshad Perriman to a one-year contract and then drafting Scott Miller in the sixth round. The Tampa passing game will run through Godwin, Mike Evans and tight end O.J. Howard.

Expectations high heading into '19
Head coach Bruce Arians recently reiterated an earlier statement that Godwin could log triple-digit receptions in the coming season, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Arians originally set the lofty bar via a comment in March, and he doubled down on his public expectations in the midst of OTAs at the end of May. While a 100-catch haul for a No. 2 receiver in a Mike Evans-helmed wideout corps may ultimately be a bit ambitious, Godwin would certainly generate an impressive line in the coming season were he to mirror the same degree of year-over-year improvement he demonstrated between his rookie campaign and his sophomore season. Godwin upped his catches from…read more

May be tasked with slot work
General manager Jason Licht suggested Godwin could spend time in the slot this upcoming season, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports. "I'm not saying [Godwin]'s Larry Fitzgerald by any means yet," Licht said Monday. "But play the role like Larry did in Arizona. That made (Humphries) a little easier to swallow."
Analysis: Tampa Bay lost DeSean Jackson and Adam Humphries early in the offseason, with Breshad Perriman the only replacement brought in thus far. Coach Bruce Arians saw his offense in Arizona thrive with a bigger wide receiver (Fitzgerald) playing the slot, so he may try to replicate that effect with Godwin and/or Mike Evans shifting inside when the Bucs use formations with three or more WRs. Regardless of the exact alignment, there's little question Arians' vertical passing attack will heavily rely on…read more

Major boost with departures
Godwin could see a major boost in potential usage and fantasy upside with the trade of DeSean Jackson to the Eagles and the departure of Adam Humphries to the Titans.
Analysis: Jackson (74) and Humphries (105) take a combined 179 targets out of town with Monday's developments, which figure to be a boon to Godwin's fantasy value and production during the coming campaign. The Penn State product often played a starter's allotment of snaps even when the receiving corps was at full health last season, and he saw a robust 95 targets in his own right during 2018. Godwin has both the size (6-foot-1, 209 pounds) and downfield chops (10 catches of over 20 yards in 2018, 14.7…read more

Takes advantage of spot start
Godwin brought in six of nine targets for 114 yards with two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 34-32 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin had been unable to take advantage of his last two starts in place of DeSean Jackson (Achilles), but he made up for some of those past struggles Sunday. The second-year wideout brought in touchdown passes of 30 and 19 yards from Jameis Winston in the second and fourth quarters, posting his third 100-yard effort of the campaign in the process. Godwin set career highs in receptions (59), receiving yardage (842) and touchdowns (seven) in 2018, and with Jackson all but certain to depart the…read more

Set for another start
Godwin is expected to be featured regularly in three-receiver formations Sunday against the Falcons with DeSean Jackson (Achilles) inactive, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After missing three straight games with a thumb injury, Jackson returned to action in last week's loss to Dallas, playing 29 offensive snaps and apparently hurting his Achilles along the way. With Jackson sidelined again, Godwin should settle back in as Tampa Bay's top downfield threat, a role he filled to mixed results while Jackson was out Weeks 13 through 15. Over that stretch, Godwin reeled in six passes for 114 yards and a touchdown on 19 targets, with five of the receptions and 101 of the…read more

Slight improvement in loss
Godwin brought in three of six targets for 39 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-20 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin's final line was nothing to write home about, but it actually served as a considerable improvement over his production over the last two games. Godwin had brought in just one of 13 targets in his last pair of contests, making it his worst multi-game stretch as a pro. He was back to sharing the No. 3 receiver role with Adam Humphries against Dallas following DeSean Jackson's return from a thumb injury, and he'll look to up his numbers in that capacity in the Week 17 matchup against the…read more

Bumps down depth chart Week 16
Godwin will return to splitting No. 3 receiver duties with Adam Humphries in Week 16 against the Cowboys with DeSean Jackson (thumb) active for the contest.
Analysis: Godwin uncharacteristically came up short, and woefully so at that, as the No. 2 wideout over the last two games, bringing in just one of 13 targets for 13 yards during that pair of contests. A return toward his more familiar role might potentially serve to boost his production, although it's worth noting the Cowboys defense comes into Sunday's contest allowing the eighth-fewest passing yards (224.0) per game.

Blanked in Week 15 loss
Godwin failed to come up with any of his three targets in the Buccaneers' 20-12 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: The second-year wideout was trying to bounce back from hauling in just one of 10 targets in Week 14, but he instead came up empty on the stat sheet for only the second time in his professional career. Godwin's minimal production over the last pair of contests is especially disappointing considering it's come with DeSean Jackson (thumb) sidelined and Godwin therefore operating as a starting receiver. He'll look to put the two-game nightmare behind him versus the Cowboys in Week 16.

Atrocious catch rate in defeat
Godwin brought in just one of 10 targets for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-14 loss to the Saints on Sunday. He also fumbled once, but it was recovered by the offense.
Analysis: Godwin's performance was a major letdown to those who'd counted on him as the fantasy playoffs kicked off, as the normally efficient receiver couldn't get on the same page with Jameis Winston throughout the day. Godwin's 10 percent catch rate was the poorest of his career in any game in which he's logged at least one reception, squandering what was a team-high target total in the continued absence of DeSean Jackson (thumb). Given that the second-year wideout has been a much more reliable asset…read more

Tops 100 receiving yards
Godwin caught five of six targets for 101 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 24-17 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Godwin tied for second on the team in targets while leading the way in receiving yardage. He displayed his big-play ability with a long gain of 48 yards and added a 13-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. Godwin enjoyed a larger share of the targets with DeSean Jackson (thumb) sidelined, and he could maintain an elevated role in Week 14 against the Saints if his teammate remains out.

Set for more work sans Jackson
Godwin and Adam Humphries are expected to benefit the most from additional snaps and targets with DeSean Jackson (thumb) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Highly efficient up to this point in his career, Godwin now has a nice opportunity to play starter-level snaps against a shaky pass defense that has allowed 7.7 yards per attempt this season. The 2017 third-round pick owns career marks of 14.1 yards per catch and 9.5 per target, with one reception for every 11.5 snaps (78 on 898). For a frame of reference, teammate Mike Evans has caught one pass for every 10.6 snaps this season and one for every 11.1 snaps throughout his career. Godwin took…read more

Another stellar catch rate in win
Godwin brought in all four of his targets for 42 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-9 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin has now brought in all 14 of his targets over the last three games, maximizing what are often modest opportunities in the Buccaneers' high-powered, talented offense. The second-year receiver continues to serve as a dependable midrange weapon, although he's now failed to reach the end zone in six straight contests. The 22-year-old's fantasy value is somewhat hampered by the fact he essentially shares the No. 3 receiver role with Adam Humphries, and the latter has been the preferred option…read more

Three grabs in Week 11 loss
Godwin brought in all three of his targets for 50 yards in the Buccaneers' 38-35 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin didn't seem hampered by the ankle injury he'd nursed during the practice week, although he fell more than halfway short of the season-best 103 yards he'd logged against the Redskins in Week 10. The second-year pro has been serviceable as a secondary option with at least 50 receiving yards in four of the last six contests, but he's now failed to reach the end zone in five straight games. He'll look to up his numbers in a favorable Week 12 matchup against the 49ers.

Active Week 11
Godwin (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: The second-year wideout was trending in the right direction when he completed a full practice Friday, and his active status is now confirmed. Godwin will split No. 3 receiver duties with Adam Humphries as usual and attempt to build on the season-best 7-103-0 line he posted against the Redskins in Week 10.

Trending toward playing Week 11
Godwin (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Despite carrying the questionable tag into the weekend, Godwin always seemed to be trending toward suiting up after he turned in a full practice Friday. Godwin's status will be officially confirmed when the Buccaneers release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. EST kickoff, but it looks like those planning on using the wideout in fantasy lineups can feel comfortable doing so.

Logs full practice, listed as questionable
Godwin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants after logging a full practice session Friday, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Held out of practice the previous two days, Godwin now appears on track to play after making it through Friday's session without limitation. Of course, Godwin's fantasy owners will still want to keep a close eye on this situation when the Buccaneers release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1 p.m. EST kickoff. DeSean Jackson would get more snaps with Godwin out of the lineup, while the other skill players on offense might benefit from added opportunities in the red…read more

Practicing Friday
Godwin (ankle) took part in practice drills Friday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: It won't be clear until after practice how much Godwin was able to do, but it's a good sign that he was able to get some work in after sitting out the previous two days. His status for the Week 11 matchup with the Giants will be revealed when the Buccaneers' final injury report of the week is released later Friday.

Remains sidelined Thursday
Godwin (ankle) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Godwin has now missed back-to-back sessions with the ankle issue, which he likely sustained during Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Redskins. The second-year wideout posted season highs with seven receptions for 103 yards in that contest, but the injury suddenly jeopardizes his chances of building on that performance this weekend against the Giants. The Buccaneers will see what Godwin can (or can't) do at Friday's practice before providing further clarity on his Week 11 status.

Dealing with ankle injury
Godwin didn't practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The absence comes just days after Godwin posted a season-high 103 yards receiving versus the Redskins, during which he caught all seven of his targets. He may be getting held out Wednesday as a precaution, but his activity level should be monitored closely as the week goes on to learn if he's at risk of missing Sunday's game against the Giants.

Has season-best game in loss
Godwin caught all seven of his targets for 103 yards during Sunday's 16-3 loss to Washington. He fumbled during the game, but it was recovered by the offense.
Analysis: Sunday's performance was a sight for sore eyes after he'd tallied just four catches combined over the previous two weeks. Godwin's seven catches and 103 yards both set season highs. Next up is rediscovering the end zone, as Godwin has been held scoreless in four straight weeks after four touchdowns in Tampa Bay's first five games. Next Sunday's matchup might be a tough one to break that spell in, as the Giants have surrendered just 11 passing touchdowns on the season, tied for fourth fewest in…read more

Sees drop in targets during loss
Godwin brought in two of three targets for 40 yards in the Buccaneers' 42-28 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Godwin saw his targets drop to their lowest point since Week 4, although he did manage to log a reception of at least 20 yards for the third straight week. The second-year wideout has been steady but unspectacular in his complementary role this season, and after getting into the end zone in four of his first five games, he's now gone without a score in three straight. Despite the fact they've now dropped five of their last six contests, the Bucs continue to boast a prolific passing game with…read more
