2023 Fantasy Outlook
Godwin's well-rounded skillset and primary slot role would seem to make him relatively QB-proof compared to other wide receivers, but the Bucs may be pushing it with their upcoming QB battle between veteran retread Baker Mayfield and 2021 second-round pick Kyle Trask. While last year's highly disappointing season for the Bucs didn't prevent Godwin from catching 100 passes for the first time, it did contribute to a career lows in yards per catch (9.8) and yards per target (7.2) as well as a miserly total of three touchdowns. As did a perhaps quick return from a 2021 ACL injury. Mike Evans held up somewhat better from an efficiency standpoint, buoyed by one massive game, though he finished with 15 fewer targets than Godwin in the same number of games (15). Target competition remains solid with Evans and Russell Gage around, but it's the quality of the targets that truly concerns for Godwin's age-27 season ahead. Read Past Outlooks

To see more outside work
Godwin, who played 60 percent of his snaps in the slot in 2022, is expected to see more work on the perimeter during the upcoming season, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith adds that when factoring in formations in which Godwin lined up tight with the offensive line or in the backfield, the veteran wideout was on the outside for just 27 percent of his 834 snaps from scrimmage. Godwin's production certainly wasn't any worse for it -- he recorded a career-high 104 receptions and posted his third career 1,000-yard season in the process -- but he also took plenty of contact in close quarters and averaged a career-low 7.2 yards per target and 9.8 yards per reception. Therefore, new offensive coordinator Dave Canales and new wide receivers coach Brad Idzik plan to incorporate some of the methods they utilized with DK Metcalf in Seattle to give Godwin more frequent breaks from the slot while also capitalizing on his still-viable downfield speed.

Apart from injuries, the Brady Era has been kind to Godwin, starting with an injury-plagued 2020
that ultimately ended in Super Bowl glory. He signed a franchise tag last offseason, and
appeared to increase his value with a big year until an ACL/MCL tear in Week 15 fouled things
up. Godwin nonetheless finished with a career-high 98 catches, and he signed a three-year, $60
million contract in March after the Bucs used a franchise tag again. Godwin figures to have high-
quality QB play for at least one more season, albeit with the added challenge of first completing
his rehab from a serious, late-season injury. His return to Tampa Bay also means at least one more year sharing
targets with talented teammates, subbing Russell Gage and Julio Jones for Antonio Brown and Rob Gronkowski (reitred). It's
Godwin's recovery from knee surgery that reigns supreme, as his combination of physical talent
(4.42 40 at 209 pounds) and reliability means he'll see the ball whenever he's healthy. He avoided the PUP list at the start of training camp, suggesting he has a chance to be ready for Week 1.
