Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Wednesday, November 5, 11:21 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) is not expected to practice on Wednesday, per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Godwin missed the team's final three games before their Week 9 bye due to a leg injury, and it appears he may not be ready to return in Week 10 against the New England Patriots. It's beginning to look like somewhat of a lost season due to injury for Godwin, who also missed Tampa Bay's first three games of 2025 while recovering from the dislocated ankle that ended his 2024 season. In the two games he's played this season, Godwin has recorded six catches for 52 yards on 14 targets. If he remains sidelined in Week 10, Buccaneers rookie wideout Tez Johnson could maintain a sizable role in the team's offense. Johnson has recorded 10 catches for 146 yards and two touchdowns on 18 targets over his last three games played. Veteran wideout Sterling Shepard and tight end Cade Otton are also candidates to be the team's number two pass-catcher behind star wide receiver Emeka Egbuka.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught eight of his nine targets for 129 yards in Sunday night's 38-14 win over the Washington Commanders. Smith-Njigba continues his historic season with his fourth straight game recording at least 120 receiving yards. The 23-year-old superstar joined Hall of Famer Isaac Bruce as the only players under age 25 with 900 or more receiving yards in the first eight games of a season. His connection with quarterback Sam Darnold has been lethal and has helped lead the Seattle Seahawks to a 6-2 record. Seattle's passing volume is not high, but JSN has consolidated all of the targets and has fully ascended to superstar status. Smith-Njigba will remain a top-three fantasy option in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals.
