The Athletic’s Dan Pompei believes it “appears certain” the Buccaneers want to re-sign Chris Godwin.
As Pompei writes in a recent article, the decision to push back the void date on Godwin’s current deal is “an indication both sides are hopeful a deal can be reached, and that talks are in the works.” Godwin turns 29 later this month and is still recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in Week 7 last season. Before that injury, Godwin was on pace to have one of the best years of his career and should have plenty left to offer a Bucs receiving corps that still has Mike Evans in tow. Godwin’s deal won’t expire until the day before the start of the new league year, giving both sides until March 11th before Godwin would officially become a free agent.
