2024 Fantasy Outlook
Godwin has a three-year streak of 1,000-yard seasons and six in a row with at least 840 yards, despite missing two-to-four games each year from 2019 to 2022. Last season was his first time avoiding absences since he became a full-time starter in 2019, but it was also his worst effort in the five-year stretch for per-game production. Godwin averaged 4.9 catches for 60.2 yards per game, down from 6.9 for 68.2 the year before and 7.0 for 78.8 in 2021. He also scored just three touchdowns (including one on the ground) for a second straight season, and had 10 receiving TDs and two rushing TDs in 46 regular-season appearances over the past three years. Known for his excellent work out of the slot combined with a physical profile (6-1, 209, 4.42 40) that allows him to also succeed on the perimeter, Godwin surprisingly took just 32 percent of his snaps inside last year, down from 60 percent in 2022 and 53 percent in 2021. The Bucs attributed it to an effort to keep him healthy, though new offensive coordinator Liam Coen has already said he's moving the 28-year-old back to a primary slot role. That's the first piece of good news, with the other being that the Bucs are bringing back QB Baker Mayfield and didn't acquire significant new target competition for Godwin and Mike Evans in free agency. Whoever ends up in the No. 3 role -- be it Trey Palmer or someone new -- figures to spend more time on the perimeter, allowing Godwin to align in the slot where both his target rate and catch rate tend to be higher.

One catch in preseason finale
Godwin caught his only target for nine yards in Friday's 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
Tampa Bay's starting offense (sans the resting Mike Evans) played the opening drive, and Godwin caught one of Baker Mayfield's three completions. Godwin has topped 1,000 receiving yards in four of the past five regular seasons, and the 28-year-old wide receiver is expected to play a key role in the passing attack once again when the games start to count Sept. 8 against the Commanders.

Godwin's well-rounded skillset and primary slot role would seem to make him relatively QB-proof compared to other wide receivers, but the Bucs may be pushing it with their upcoming QB battle between veteran retread Baker Mayfield and 2021 second-round pick Kyle Trask. While last year's highly disappointing season for the Bucs didn't prevent Godwin from catching 100 passes for the first time, it did contribute to a career lows in yards per catch (9.8) and yards per target (7.2) as well as a miserly total of three touchdowns. As did a perhaps quick return from a 2021 ACL injury. Mike Evans held up somewhat better from an efficiency standpoint, buoyed by one massive game, though he finished with 15 fewer targets than Godwin in the same number of games (15). Target competition improved for Godwin in August when Russell Gage suffered a season-ending injury in training camp, but it's the quality of the targets that truly concerns for Godwin's age-27 season ahead.

Standing out early in camp
Godwin has impressed over the first few practices of training camp and has caught the eye of fellow star wideout Mike Evans, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. "He's going to have a great year," said Evans of Godwin. "Y'all saw him today - he looks like he's in midseason form. He's making plays, going deep, looks like the 2019 Chris Godwin."

Set for more work in slot
Godwin will play primarily in the slot in 2024, according to Dan Pompei of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Godwin posted 83 catches for 1,024 yards and two touchdowns in the 2023 regular season, marking his lowest touchdown total since his rookie season in 2017 and his second-lowest reception total over the past five seasons. That down year came with Godwin shifting more to the perimeter, but the Buccaneers intend to use him mostly out of the slot in 2024, which could set the veteran wide receiver up for a productive season in a contract year.
