Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or Puka Nacua

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) is reportedly moving around well during practices. It's nice to hear that Godwin is making progress after a brutal dislocation of his ankle sidelined him for a majority of last season. Despite that, the Bucs gave Godwin a three-year, $66 million extension this offseason. The Bucs aren't going to push Godwin too hard, but it seems like he's doing well early in camp. He currently remains without a timetable to return. There's a chance that Godwin is eased back into action early in the season. If that happens, Jalen McMillan and rookie Emeka Egbuka would see increased snaps alongside Mike Evans in a three-receiver set.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua said on the "Join The Lobby" podcast that he would like to retire from the NFL at the age of 30. It would mean that the 23-year-old (24 in May) pass-catcher would have six or seven more years of football left in him. After being selected in the fifth round (177th overall) in 2023, Nacua has been lights-out his first two professional seasons with a combined 184 catches on 266 targets for 2,476 yards and nine touchdowns in 28 regular-season starts. Barring an injury, he should be an elite receiver in the NFL for years to come, especially now that Cooper Kupp is no longer in L.A. Nacua did miss five games in the first half of the 2025 campaign due to a knee injury, but on a per-game basis, he was even more productive for fantasy managers. Even with Davante Adams essentially replacing Kupp, Nacua should be a target hog and a strong WR1 target in fantasy drafts.
