Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles defended his decision to keep star receiver Chris Godwin in the game despite a small chance of winning prior to his ankle injury.
Chris Godwin is likely to have a season-ending ankle injury after the star Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver needed to be carted off the Raymond James Stadium field on 'Monday Night Football' against the Baltimore Ravens. Bucs fans have a bone to pick with head coach Todd Bowles, though, as Godwin’s injury came in garbage time — 43 seconds left to play with Tampa Bay down 10 to Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.
Trainers quickly ran out to assess the situation, and Godwin was ultimately placed in an air cast and carted off the field. Bowles would tell reporters after the game that the early prognosis was a dislocated ankle — an injury that would be season-ending based on the time of recovery. Godwin, who is ranked second in receiving yards in the NFL this season, is set to be a free agent after this year.
