Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or DJ Moore

Wednesday, October 22, 1:13 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said on Wednesday that wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) will not be back this Sunday to take on the division-rival New Orleans Saints in Week 8, according to FOX Sports' Greg Auman. Godwin got a late start to the 2025 campaign while recovering from a season-ending dislocated ankle that he suffered in Week 7 of last year, and then suffered a fibula injury that will now keep him out for a third straight game. In addition to Godwin's injury, Tampa lost future Hall of Fame wideout Mike Evans (collarbone) for most of the rest of the season when he fractured his clavicle in Monday night's loss to the Lions. Fantasy managers who have been stashing Godwin will be keeping their fingers crossed that he'll be able to return after next week's bye to take on the New England Patriots in Week 10. With Evans now potentially out the rest of the year, Godwin figures to be heavily involved in the passing attack next to rookie first-rounder Emeka Egbuka whenever he returns.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore caught four of his six targets for 72 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. He also had a two-yard passing touchdown and a 17-yard rushing touchdown. We've heard for several months that Moore was going to have some unique ways of getting involved in new head coach Ben Johnson's system, but perhaps nobody expected the wide receiver to run and throw for a touchdown in the same game. The 28-year-old had his best fantasy performance (PPR) since Week 12 last season. He remains a low-end WR2 heading into Week 10 against the 2-7 New York Giants.
