The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed wide receiver Chris Godwin on injured reserve due to a dislocated ankle that requires surgery, likely sidelining him for the rest of the season. Godwin leads the NFL with 50 receptions and has been a key contributor with 576 receiving yards.

In addition to Godwin, the Bucs also face challenges as wide receiver Mike Evans is expected to miss at least three games due to a hamstring injury sustained during the same match against the Baltimore Ravens.
