Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or Calvin Ridley

Tuesday, November 18, 12:53 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) has played in only two games in 2025 and hasn't been on the field on game day since Week 5 due to a fibula injury. The good news, though, is that he was limited in practice all of last week and is making progress. It remains to be seen if he'll be cleared to play in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football, and it will depend on how much he's able to do in practice this week. Godwin is currently rostered in less than 50% of Yahoo leagues because of his extended absence. However, with a potential return on the horizon, fantasy managers in need at the position and with room on their bench may want to consider stashing him for the stretch run. When back to full health, Godwin should be a primary aerial weapon for quarterback Baker Mayfield, especially with Mike Evans (collarbone) likely done for the rest of the regular season.

The Tennessee Titans officially placed wide receiver Calvin Ridley (leg) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Tuesday and signed receiver James Proche II to the active 53-man roster in a corresponding move, according to Jim Wyatt of the team's website. Ridley broke his fibula in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans and will miss the rest of 2025. In addition to Ridley's injury, rookie wideouts Chimere Dike (chest) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) were injured in Week 11 and did not return. It means the Titans' WR corps could be dangerously thin for their Week 12 tilt against the visiting Seattle Seahawks. If Dike and Ayomanor are both unable to play this weekend, it would mean much larger roles for veteran Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey in the passing game, with tight ends Chig Okonkwo and Gunnar Helm also seeing target boosts.
