Factoid: Chris Godwin

I doubt that I’ll be selecting Chris Godwin in any draft this year. Nice player, but I don’t know that Tampa Bay has a quarterback who can get him the ball. I think that offense will be taking a big step back.   more »

Around the NFL: Chris Godwin

All the stories we're hearing lately -- Chris Godwin unlikely to be fully healthy at the start of the season, Rob Gronkowski retiring -- have served to lift Russell Gage's value into the stratosphere.
