For good reason, Chris Godwin is a fan favorite in Tampa Bay for Bucs fans. He is great on the field for the team, helping them get a Super Bowl during his tenure, but he may be even better off the field. From his production for Baker Mayfield to his charity work int he community, Godwin is a player every team could use as a building block.
Bucs fans and the team may have to prepare for the possibility of losing Chris Godwin in free agency, though.
In their free agency primer, Spotrac published each team’s biggest free agency decision and player to monitor. They add a wrinkle that many people have overlooked when it comes to bringing him back to Tampa Bay: money.
“Godwin was on pace for another Godwin-like campaign in 2024 before an ankle injury derailed his season. Teams will have some pause when assessing the 28-year-old coming back from his second major injury, but a weak WR market will help sustain his ability to cash in. The former 3rd round pick carries a 3 year, $66M valuation in our system.”
With the team’s projected salary cap space at only $11 million, spending that much on Godwin would require other players to rework their deals or be cut altogether.
There are a lot of dominos left to fall in Tampa Bay this offseason.
