Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or George Pickens

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Godwin returned in Sunday night's loss to the Los Angeles Rams for the first time since suffering a fractured fibula in Week 5, but he's still being limited in practice as a precaution. In his first game back, Godwin played only 36% of the offensive snaps and caught two of four targets for nine yards. The 29-year-old shouldn't be in any real danger of missing this Sunday's Week 13 contest against the visiting Arizona Cardinals, and he should see more playing time in his second game back. However, Godwin should be viewed as more of a WR4/5 for fantasy purposes as he gets his legs underneath him, and he'll be a receiver to fade for a second straight week if quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is unable to play.

The Dallas Cowboys are looking to retain wide receiver George Pickens for 2026 and beyond. According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones does not want Pickens playing elsewhere in 2026. "We've got two No. 1 wide receivers," said Jones. Pickens was acquired by the Cowboys this offseason and has been excellent for Dallas in 2025. The 24-year-old has racked up 67 catches for 1,054 yards and eight touchdowns over 11 games. He is set to become an unrestricted free agent after the 2025 season as he's in the final year of his rookie deal. The Cowboys could also place the franchise tag on Pickens if they are unable to agree on a contract extension. Pickens is a low-end WR1 in dynasty if he remains in Dallas, where the Cowboys are looking to extend and sign the former Steeler to a long-term deal. Pickens will look to keep things rolling against the Chiefs on Thanksgiving.
