Tampa Bay’s Chris Godwin Jr. cleared to play Week 4 after full practice participation

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. practiced fully on Friday, Oct. 2, and is not listed on the injury report for Week 4, confirming his availability for Sunday’s game. The team’s official website reported that Godwin, who had been sidelined with an ankle issue, participated without limitation in practice sessions.

Godwin’s return comes as the Buccaneers adjust to a new quarterback under center. This change is likely to affect Godwin’s volume of targets, which could reduce his usual impact on the field. Fantasy football players should consider this development, as Godwin may slot into a No. 4 receiver or flex option role rather than a primary target.

The Buccaneers’ shifting offensive dynamics mean Godwin’s chemistry with the new quarterback will be under close watch this week. While his full practice participation signals readiness, the exact influence on the team’s passing game remains to be seen.

The original announcement appeared on Buccaneers.com, with USA TODAY later reporting Godwin’s expected participation in the upcoming game. At this point, the Buccaneers have yet to release further specifics on Godwin’s projected snap count or target expectations for Week 4.
