As free agency opens, one of the top receivers is staying put.
Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Chris Godwin has agreed to terms to return to the Buccaneers. It’s a three-year, $66 million deal with a chance to push the $22 million APY to $24 million.
Of the amount, $44 million is guaranteed at signing.
Adam Schefter of ESPN adds that the Patriots were making a push to sign Godwin.
He suffered a season-ending injury during a Monday night loss to the Ravens.
Godwin, who has played all eight years in Tampa Bay, will continue to play for the Bucs,
