Chris Godwin has recently undergone a second surgery, with reports suggesting it may involve his ankle again, after a previous procedure this spring. The specifics surrounding his rehabilitation remain unclear, as the nature of the surgery is still being clarified. This development raises questions for fantasy enthusiasts regarding Godwin's readiness for the upcoming season, particularly considering his pivotal role in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' offense.

The Buccaneers are counting on Godwin to return to form as they navigate a competitive NFC South, and this surgery could impact their aerial attack. With quarterback Baker Mayfield at the helm, the team hopes to establish a potent passing game that relies heavily on Godwin’s abilities. His potential absence or limited participation in training camps could also prompt a reassessment of the Buccaneers' receiving options for the 2023 season.
