Chris Godwin Jr. News

Chris Godwin Jr. an Offseason Winner

Sunday, April 26, 5:15 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. is coming off a year in which he saw career lows in receptions, yards, and yards per route run, while his two receiving touchdowns were the lowest since his rookie season. However, he is now 18 months removed from the gruesome lower leg injury that ended his 2024 season and limited him at times throughout 2025. Prior to the injury, he was the fantasy WR2 through the first seven weeks of his age-28 season. Now 30, any fears that he may be slowing down did not show up in the Buccaneers' offseason approach. The team allowed Mike Evans to depart in free agency and spent only a late Day 2 pick on the receiver position, adding Georgia State's Ted Hurst in the middle of the third round. Hurst will likely compete with Jalen McMillan for Evans' vacated snaps on the boundary, while Godwin and Emeka Egbuka offer versatility across the formation and should be the team's most consistent target-earners in 2026. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR49, Godwin is a low-cost buy for competing managers.

Jauan Jennings News

Jauan Jennings Visiting With Vikings

Tuesday, April 28, 6:41 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Jauan Jennings is visiting with the Minnesota Vikings on Tuesday night and Wednesday, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The 49ers moved on from Jennings after not finding common ground for a long-term extension. The 28-year-old's market has been ice-cold this offseason after he caught 55 passes for 643 yards and a career-high nine touchdowns in 15 regular-season starts in his fifth year in the NFL. Jennings has 15 touchdown receptions in the last two years and also set career-highs in catches (77) and receiving yards (975) in 15 games for the 49ers in 2024. The former seventh-rounder's high-point mark easily could have been the 2024 season. His production soared the last two seasons, with both Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Ricky Pearsall missing extended time with injuries in the Bay Area. If Jennings were to land in Minnesota, his fantasy ceiling would be much lower behind both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison.
