Chris Godwin Joins The Walking Wounded, But It Is Unlikely A Big Deal

January 12th, 2024

Injury report.

The Bucs now have 3.5 starters on the injury report.

Three practices down, three key starters remain limited for the Bucs. That would be quarterback Baker Mayfield (ribs/ankle), linebacker K.J. Britt (calf) and left tackle Tristan Wirfs (illness).

Joe saw Wirfs in the locker room today and he admitted he’s been pretty sick. Also, Wirfs had a shoulder wrapped up.

The additional starter added to the injury report is wide receiver Chris Godwin. However, it appears he was only given a complete rest day for his his knee.
