At the beginning of the 2024 regular season, Chris Godwin Jr. was playing some of the best ball of his career.
Godwin had 511 receiving yards and five touchdowns through the first six weeks. He also led the league in receiving first downs (30) and yards after the catch (324) during that span. The decision to move him back to the slot had paid dividends. Unfortunately, a Week Seven injury against the Ravens cut his season short, forcing the Buccaneers to continue without one of their top receivers. What followed was an 11-month grind of rehab as Godwin worked his way back to the field. To the rejoice of many, he made his long-awaited return to the gridiron in Week Four of the 2025 season.
Last year, Godwin appeared in nine games, totaling 360 yards and two touchdowns. Though injuries sidelined him in the middle of the season, Godwin still found ways to make an impact on the field. He continued to be the dangerous, reliable third-down threat we have all come to know. The highlight of his season came in Week 17 against the Miami Dolphins, when he caught seven passes for 108 yards and a touchdown. His 59-yard reception in the game marked his longest gain since 2019.
Godwin now has 612 receptions, 7,626 receiving yards and 41 receiving touchdowns to his name. As we start the 2026 offseason, let's take a look at some of the best games of his career.
Here are Godwin's three most memorable performances —starting with No. 3.

3. December 31, 2017 | Week 17 2017 @ NO | Tampa Bay 31, New Orleans 24
Stat Line: 7 receptions, 111 yards, 1 TD
Godwin arrived in Tampa Bay as a third-round pick from Penn State and got to work earning his keep. Going into Week 17 of his rookie season, he brought in 43 receptions, gaining 414 yards. Godwin closed out his rookie year with a bang in the season finale. He achieved new personal highs for receptions (7) and yards (111) while also scoring his first NFL touchdown.
Godwin's first score was a memorable one. The Bucs were down 24-23 with less than two minutes on the clock. Jameis Winston led the team down to the New Orleans 44-yard line with 15 seconds remaining. He dropped back, scanned right, and zipped a dart to Godwin, who fought through tight coverage at the 10 before powering into the end zone for the game-winner. What a perfect way to end his rookie season.
2. December 5, 2021 | Week 14 2021 @ ATL | Tampa Bay 30, Atlanta 17
Stat Line: 15 receptions, 143 yards, 1 TD, 1 rush, 9 yards
Before Week 14, the franchise record for most receptions in a game was 13, achieved by Buccaneers Wide Receiver Earnest Graham in 2007. That changed against the Falcons in 2021.
Here is every time Godwin was targeted on his way to setting the Buccaneers' single-game reception record.
- 14:23 - 1st QTR: Tom Brady short pass middle incomplete to Godwin
- 14:17 - 1st QTR: Brady short pass middle to Godwin for five yards
- 13:46 - 1st QTR: Brady short pass right to Godwin for 11 yards
- 12:49 - 1st QTR: Brady short pass left to Godwin for six yards
- 10:48 - 1st QTR: Brady short pass right to Godwin for seven yards
- 10:18 - 1st QTR: Brady short pass left to Godwin for four yards
- 6:00 - 1st QTR: Brady deep pass left to Godwin for 25 yards
- 7:28 - 2nd QTR: Brady short pass right to Godwin for six yards
- 6:37 - 2nd QTR: Brady short pass left to Godwin for 17 yards
- 0:44 - 2nd QTR: Brady short pass left to Godwin for one yard
- 5:50 - 3rd QTR: Brady short pass middle to Godwin for nine yards
- 5:03 - 3rd QTR: Brady short pass middle to Godwin for seven yards
- 1:36 - 3rd QTR: Brady short pass right to Godwin for one yard
- 12:26 - 4th QTR: Brady short pass middle incomplete to Godwin
- 5:56 - 4th QTR: Brady deep pass left to Godwin for 36 yards
- 5:08 - 4th QTR: Brady short pass left to Godwin for five yards
- 4:21 - 4th QTR: Brady short pass left to Godwin for three yards
For those keeping track, Godwin brought in 15 of 17 passes thrown his way. That is a remarkable stat. There have been six other instances where Buccaneers receivers were targeted more than Godwin in this game vs. Atlanta, yet he needed only 17 to set the record.
1. November 24, 2019 | Week 12 2019 @ ATL | Tampa Bay 35, Atlanta 22
Stat Line: 7 receptions, 184 yards, 2 TD
Godwin got off to a fast start in Atlanta during what became his career-best performance in receiving yards. His first catch was a 71-yard touchdown in the first quarter thrown by Winston. Godwin streaked up the middle of the field, beating the linebacker to the ball. Then, he broke the tackle of the safety and found green grass in front of him. Godwin's next two catches were for 22 and 30 yards before hauling in two one-yard grabs, the latter being his second touchdown.
When it was all said and done, Godwin gained 184 yards on only seven receptions. This was one of the six 100-plus-yard performances by Godwin during the 2019 season. He would go on to total 1,333 receiving yards and nine touchdowns by the end of the year, the most productive season of his NFL career.
(Fun Fact: Nose Tackle Vita Vea also caught a receiving touchdown in this game.)
