A brand new Chris Godwin injury threatens to throw the Buccaneers off course

One of the last things the Tampa Bay Buccaneers need is for yet another injury to gum up the works. That's exactly what's happening with star wide receiver Chris Godwin, and worse yet it's a brand new injury he's dealing with.

Godwin didn't practice all week, but it had nothing to do with the ankle injury he returned from earlier this year. Instead, it's a fibula injury that kept Godwin out of practice and will sideline him for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

The good news is that the Bucs aren't expected to place Godwin on injured reserve, but the bad news is that it was even on the table as a potential outcome.
