Not practicing due to ankle injury
Godwin (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.
Godwin, who has played in all three games thus far, is now dealing with an ankle injury that prevented him from practicing Wednesday. This could compound Tampa Bay's passing game issues, as the Buccaneers will already be without Baker Mayfield for the next few weeks. The severity of Godwin's ankle injury has yet to be disclosed, so his practice status in the coming days will be telling.
