Chris Godwin Expected To Play Sunday Night
4 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers Pro Bowl wide receiver Chris Godwin (finger) is listed as questionable for Week 9 against the Saints on Sunday night, but head coach Bruce Arians expects the receiver to play in the divisional showdown. Godwin caught passes for the first time on Friday since undergoing surgery on Oct. 27 for a fractured left index finger. He was sporting a bulky white brace on his left hand on Friday. Arians thinks it will mostly be a matter of pain tolerance for the wideout and that the finger is past the point of potential infection. Godwin has already missed four games this season and caught six of seven targets for 79 yards in the first meeting with New Orleans. Godwin's injury, combined with the fact that Antonio Brown is making his team debut on Sunday night, makes him a volatile boom/bust fantasy wideout if he's active.
