The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Chris Godwin Jr.
Is Chris Godwin Playing in Week 14?
Godwin is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Buccaneers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Godwin in Week 14?
I don’t want to get out over my skis here, but was Godwin’s Week 13 performance the most impactful three-catch showing of the season in terms of looking forward?
- Week 15 vs. Falcons
- Week 16 at Panthers
- Week 17 at Dolphins
That may sound crazy, and maybe it is. But the veteran receiver picked up 20+ yards in each of those receptions , was involved on the first drive, and dropped what should have been a touchdown.
He looked healthy, and the Bucs need a stable WR2 in the worst way. Emeka Egbuka has run into something of a rookie wall, and Cade Otton is only capable of so much. I like Godwin as a flex over the next two weeks, and while there might be a Mike Evans return to navigate soon, Tampa Bay’s postseason fate is essentially going to hang in the balance when they face the Panthers.
We want our fantasy starters playing their most important games when we are, and that indeed projects to be the case here!
