Chris Godwin Jr. News
Saturday, March 14, 9:17 AM
Playing in parts of only nine games in 2025, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. put up the worst statistical campaign of his nine-year career, recording personal lows in receptions and yards, while his two receiving touchdowns were the lowest since his rookie year in 2017. Entering 2026, the Buccaneers will be without future Hall of Famer Mike Evans for the first time in over a decade, opening a target vacuum that Godwin could be first in line to fill. Godwin missed the first three games of 2025, opening a window for first-round pick Emeka Egbuka to form an early rapport with Baker Mayfield, but the chemistry faded down the stretch, and it was Godwin who received the second-most looks behind Evans over the final month of the season. One more year removed from the brutal ankle injury that ended his 2024 season, Godwin should see his target share and raw opportunities spike to the pre-injury count that saw him top 1,000 yards for five straight seasons.

DK Metcalf News
Friday, March 13, 7:33 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf suddenly finds himself facing plenty of competition for targets on offense. The 28-year-old entered this offseason as the Steelers' clear No. 1 receiver, and it initially seemed like he was due for even more targets with Calvin Austin III slated for free agency. While Austin did indeed sign elsewhere (the New York Giants, to be exact), Pittsburgh brought in a major pass-catching threat by trading for Michael Pittman Jr. Not only is the former Indianapolis Colts receiver a huge contributor on offense, but he could push to take over as the Steelers' No. 1 receiver in front of Metcalf. That's not bad news for the Steelers -- two top receivers is a nice luxury to have -- but it's potentially concerning for Metcalf's dynasty managers. Pittsburgh's offense wasn't great by any means last year, and they could go run-heavy in 2026 with Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle in tow. If Metcalf can't even separate himself from Pittman, he might have trouble improving on his 2025 stat line, which included 59 catches, 850 yards, and six touchdowns. Metcalf should be viewed as a mid-to-high WR3 with WR2 upside.
