Chris Godwin Expected to be Activated from the PUP List

Thursday, August 21, 9:25 AM

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers plan to activate ninth-year wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) from the Physically Unable to Perform list and have him on the 53-man roster to begin the season. The team is taking a cautious approach to his recovery from the gruesome ankle injury that ended his 2024 season and still considers him unlikely to play until October. By keeping Godwin off the PUP list to begin the year, they can accelerate his practice window, and the plan is for him to start practicing in Week 2, keeping him on his current recovery timeline. Godwin was the WR2 in PPR formats before his season ended prematurely in Week 7 of last year, and he is currently RotoBaller's WR52, making him a smart late-round pick in all leagues, but especially those with an injured reserve spot.

Rome Odunze Drops Lone Target Against Bills

Sunday, August 17, 10:15 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze went without a reception in his preseason debut against the Buffalo Bills. Odunze was targeted once on the game's second drive, but dropped his lone target on a curl route on a third down. Despite the dull night from the second-year receiver, Odunze ran half of his routes from the slot and could slide into the coveted Amon-Ra St. Brown role in head coach Ben Johnson's scheme. Odunze is having an impressive training camp and continues to see his fantasy stock rise this offseason. Even with a subpar night, the 2024 first-round pick remains a breakout candidate in fantasy this season.
