Unlike his teammate Mike Evans, Chris Godwin showed significant signs of regression last season. Godwin was a WR3 in FPts/G, his worst performance since 2018.
However, we should not expect more of the same with Godwin as we are with Evans and Mayfield. There is reason to believe that Godwin can return to be the steady WR2 that he has been for years.
Dave Canales' offense worked wonders for the majority of the weapons in Tampa Bay. Godwin was the exception. Throughout his career, Godwin has been heavily featured as a slot receiver as 50-60 percent of Godwin's snaps came in the slot during his most successful fantasy seasons. Under Canales in 2023, this number was just 32 percent.
The Buccaneers' new offensive coordinator, Liam Coen, has already indicated that Godwin will be their primary inside receiver. He even said that it could be in a "Cooper Kupp-like" role. Coen was the Rams' WR coach when Kupp had his breakout year.
With a move back to the slot, Godwin should consistently see layup targets that bump his catch rate and overall production. He is currently drafted as the WR36 and seems like a massive value at that price. A return to WR2 form for Godwin with more slot routes is a very reasonable expectation.

 Chris Godwin out for the season
Suffered dislocated ankle in Week 7
By: Doug Orth | Tue Oct 22, 5:25 pm
|  | The Buccaneers' Chris Godwin will undergo surgery for a dislocated left ankle and will likely be done for the year, coach Todd Bowles said Tuesday, one day after the star wide receiver was carted off the field in the final minute of a "Monday Night Football" loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
"There's a chance if we make a late playoff run, he could be back," Bowles said of Godwin, whom he said did have some additional structural damage to the ankle, "but he's undergoing surgery and he's going to be out." (ESPN.com - Jenna Laine)
FFToday's Take: Godwin was injured in the final minute of the team's 41-31 loss to the Ravens, which has led to many questioning why he was still in the game at that point. Either way, Tampa Bay will likely be without his top two receivers for at least a month after Mike Evans went down with a hamstring injury earlier in the contest. Cade Otton has recorded more than twice as many snaps in the slot as the next closest Buc and could be the one Tampa Bay player that benefits the most statistically. Jalen McMillan would make the most sense, however, after he served in that role for the University of Washington last season and was a player that the coaching staff raved about this summer.

Hamstring for Evans, Dislocated ankle for Godwin

FFToday's Take: We saw a number of injuries in Week 7 including two on Monday night to starting Buccaneers wide receivers. Mike Evans left early, aggravating his hamstring injury. Chris Godwin was injured with under a minute left in the game and appears to have suffered a dislocated ankle that will likely end his season. Tampa's Week 8 game against the Falcons could feature Jalen McMillan, Sterling Shepard and Trey Palmer at receiver.
