Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or Saquon Barkley

The NFL's Ian Rapoport reports that Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) will undergo surgery on Wednesday to repair his dislocated ankle. Rapoport noted that tests done leading up to surgery were "as good as they could've been," according to sources. Additionally, there is an outside shot Godwin could return in 2024, depending on how late in the winter the Bucs play. However, the likelihood of such an outcome is not very good. With fellow wideout Mike Evans (hamstring) expected to miss time through Week 11, Tampa Bay is suddenly reeling on offense. It'd not be surprising to see the team seek veteran help, but in the meantime, wide receivers Jalen McMillan, Trey Palmer, and Sterling Shepherd will attempt to fill the void. Running back Rachaad White and tight end Cade Otton should also continue to see an uptick in usage.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley delivered another stellar performance in Sunday night's 22-10 win over the Green Bay Packers. Barkley rushed 25 times for 119 yards, marking his 11th game this season with over 100 rushing yards. While he only contributed two receptions for four yards in the passing game, Barkley's ground dominance was pivotal in the Eagles' offensive game plan. Barkley's consistent production continued to showcase why he is the centerpiece of Philadelphia's offense. His ability to churn out tough yards and extend drives helped the Eagles control the tempo against a stout Packers defense. As the Eagles prepare to host the winner of Minnesota Vikings/Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round, Barkley will remain a critical component of their postseason success.
