Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles confirmed on Thursday that the team plans to activate wide receiver Chris Godwin from the physically unable to perform list ahead of the cut to 53 players next week and he's not the only player they plan to put on the active roster.

Palmer has some explosive playmaking, but his role is likely to be supplanted by that of Tez Johnson now. It is going to be tough to make this roster as a wide receiver. Those who do will have earned it but with snap counts dwindling, the odds are against Palmer at this point as Davenport writes.

During the 2024 NFL season, former Penn State wide receiver Chris Godwin suffered an unfortunate injury that ended his season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt, who prefers to be called "Bill," is officially making fantasy managers take notice after an 11-carry, 46-yard, performance in Week 2 of the preseason against the Cincinnati Bengals, showcasing vision, patience, and breakaway speed as seen on a 27-yard touchdown run.

Emeka Egbuka has been turning heads this training camp and preseason, and the Bucs get ready for Week 1 in the coming weeks. The team is likely to use him right away, while Chris Godwin Jr. is nursing his ankle back from the injury he suffered in 2024, and now Jalen McMillan is placed on injured reserve.

McMillan jumped in an attempt to make a catch in the first quarter of Saturday's preseason game with the Pittsburgh Steelers when he was undercut by Steelers defensive back Daryl Porter, causing McMillan to land on the back of his head with his body folding awkwardly.
