Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin or Travis Hunter

Monday, November 17, 12:57 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said on Monday that wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) will be worked in more in practice this week and will be re-evaluated at the end of the week, according to the Pewter Report. Is it possible that Godwin will be ready to play in Week 12 versus the Los Angeles Rams? Potentially, but the Bucs will make that determination later in the week, depending on how much the 29-year-old can do and how he responds to more physical activity. He didn't make his 2025 debut until Week 4 following a season-ending ankle dislocation in Week 7 of last year, and then he injured his fibula in Week 5 of this year. Godwin should have a big role in Tampa's passing attack when he's cleared to return, next to rookies Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson, but the team is taking a cautious approach. Don't be surprised if Godwin misses another week.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter (knee) unfortunately saw his rookie campaign come to an early end. Hunter was only able to play in seven games before suffering a season-ending knee injury that required surgery. There was speculation that Hunter might make the switch to one position following this injury. So far, the Jags have stated they plan to continue using Hunter as a two-way player. His injury occurred during a non-contact play during practice, so it doesn't sound like it had anything to do with the wear-and-tear of playing two positions. He finished his rookie season with 28 receptions for 298 yards and one touchdown.
