Chris Godwin Fantasy

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin could very likely wind up as the highest scoring wide receiver in Week 15 when the Bucs take on the Detroit Lions. Mike Evans (hamstring) is out of the picture for the rest of the reason, and while that might mean that Godwin ends up seeing more of Darius Slay in this matchup, he will still slot in as a must-start WR1 for the fantasy semi-finals. There is one potential hiccup though. Jamies Winston (thumb) may miss Sunday's game, which would slightly diminish Godwin's value, but he will be a must-start regardless. Fantasy owners can worry about other things in the lead up to Sunday.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin caught seven of nine targets for 91 scoreless yards in a win over the Colts Sunday. The nine targets were more than any other Buccaneer and that should continue to be the case as fellow receiver Mike Evans left with a hamstring injury leaving Godwin as the unquestioned number one for Tampa. Godwin will have an interesting matchup in Week 15 as the Evans injury means Godwin may see more of cornerback Darius Slay should the Lions decide to use Slay in the slot. Regardless of who he's facing, Godwin is a must-start WR1.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin grabbed seven of nine targets for 91 yards in the Bucs 38-35 win over the Colts Defense on Sunday. The third-year wideout paced the team in targets after Mike Evans (hamstring) left the field early in the game. Quarterback Jameis Winston had a monster day seamlessly spreading it around to all of his pass-catchers. Evans' injury makes Godwin the true No.1 of this offense now and should translate into extra work for Breshad Perriman, newcomer Justin Watson and the tight ends. It's an early Christmas present for Godwin owners as the Bucs face the leaky Lions Defense in Week 15.
