Chris Godwin Likely to Start the Season on PUP List?
Chris Godwin (ankle) could open the season on the PUP list. According to Scott Reynolds of Penter Report, he would be "shocked" if Godwin does not open the season on the PUP list. The veteran wideout is currently recovering from a dislocated ankle he suffered during Week 7 of the 2024 season. He began training camp on the active/PUP list and could be shifted to the reserve list, which would keep him sidelined for at least the first four games of the regular season. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to his status as his absence would significantly affect the Tampa Bay offense. If he were to sit out, Mike Evans would stand as the clear top option for Baker Mayfield. In addition, rookie Emeka Egbuka could be given a substantial role as well. Before his injury, Godwin was on pace to enjoy potentially the best season of his career as he caught 50 passes for 576 yards and five scores through seven games. When he does return, fantasy managers should expect him to carry solid WR2 upside in PPR leagues given his role as the slot receiver in the offense.
