One of many NFL’s greatest receivers could possibly be finished for the season.

Buccaneers star Chris Godwin will bear ankle surgical procedure this week, in keeping with NFL Community’s Ian Rapoport, and he’ll see a health care provider Tuesday to find out the injury.

NFL Community’s Tom Pelissero added that the harm will “more than likely” finish Godwin’s 2024 season.

Bucs head coach Todd Bowles confirmed in his post-game press convention that Godwin dislocated his ankle late in Monday’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The 28-year-old receiver was carted off along with his left leg in an air forged, simply 43 seconds earlier than the tip of the blowout loss after being tackled following a catch.

For Godwin and the Bucs, the timing of the harm makes it that a lot worse. He is within the midst of a profession 12 months, totaling 576 receiving yards although Week 7 — second within the league behind Ja’Marr Chase. Godwin leads the league with 50 receptions and 350 yards after catch.

The Bucs, in the meantime, at the moment are tied atop the NFC South with the rival Atlanta Falcons at 4-3. Tampa Bay and Atlanta will face off for the second and last time this season on Sunday at Raymond James Stadium in Florida, simply three weeks after the Falcons’ time beyond regulation win over the Bucs.

Godwin is ready to turn out to be a free agent after this season, so Monday night time might need been his last snap for the Bucs. A 3rd-round choose in 2017, Godwin has surpassed 500 receiving yards in every of his first eight seasons (together with 2024). He has 4 1,000-yard seasons and helped Tampa Bay win the Tremendous Bowl in 2020.

The Baltimore Ravens confirmed as much as Tampa with an offense that was stopping for no person.
