Chris Godwin Not Expected to Return in Week 7

Monday, October 13, 12:47 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said on Monday that wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) is not in play to return for the team's Week 7 Monday night contest versus the Detroit Lions, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports. Godwin didn't make his 2025 debut until Week 4 after recovering from a dislocated ankle last year, and he was only able to play in two games before suffering a fibula injury that kept him sidelined in the Week 6 win over the San Francisco 49ers. It appears Godwin is going to miss a second game, too. With rookie Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) getting hurt on Sunday, and Mike Evans (hamstring) still out, the Bucs could be down to Sterling Shepard, Kameron Johnson, and Tez Johnson as their starters in three-wide sets in Week 7. If Godwin doesn't play next Monday night, his next chance to return would come in Week 8 against the division-rival New Orleans Saints.
