The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed star wide receiver Chris Godwin on injured reserve due to a dislocated ankle that requires surgery. This injury occurred in the closing moments of a recent game against the Baltimore Ravens, and he is likely out for the season, though a playoff return remains a possibility.

Godwin currently leads the NFL with 50 receptions and is a key player for the Bucs. Additionally, the team is dealing with another setback as wide receiver Mike Evans is also sidelined with a hamstring injury.
