Tampa Bay Buccaneers Facing Tough Decisions in Offseason Roster Changes
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are facing some tough decisions this offseason as they look to make changes to their roster. One of the biggest questions surrounds veteran wide receiver Chris Godwin, who is set to hit the open market after a season-ending ankle injury.
Godwin, who caught five touchdowns in just seven games last season, is coming off a three-year, $60 million extension with the Buccaneers. However, with the team facing cap constraints, it seems unlikely that they will be able to afford to keep him.
According to Bleacher Report’s Moe Morton, Godwin is projected to be one of five free agents who won’t receive the franchise tag and will likely move on from the team. This would mark the end of an era for Godwin, who has spent all eight of his professional seasons with the Buccaneers.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding Godwin’s future, he remains a key piece of the Buccaneers’ offense. Last season, he caught 50 passes for 576 yards and five touchdowns, including a standout performance against the New Orleans Saints.
As the Buccaneers navigate their offseason decisions, the fate of Chris Godwin remains up in the air. Stay tuned to BucsGameday for the latest updates on this developing story.
