2026 Outlook

Godwin returns as a long-time Buccaneers standout and stable presence in the WR room, pairing with Emeka Egbuka in a deep and talented receiving corps. With Mike Evans departed, Godwin remains the established veteran anchor of the position group. At age 31, Godwin's efficiency and reliability are more valuable than raw upside, though he still maintains the skillset to produce meaningful fantasy points in the Buccaneers' scheme with Baker Mayfield healthy (per Buccaneers have another WR to get hyped about).
