Poised to sit out Saturday Godwin isn't in line to play in Saturday's preseason contest against the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Godwin suited up for the Bucs' exhibition opener this past Saturday, playing only the six offensive snaps of the first possession of the game. The same can be said for Tom Brady, Mike Evans and Rob Gronkowski. Bruce Arians mentioned Monday that the starters won't play this weekend, but Brady was the sole name uttered by the coach. As a result, it's safe to say Godwin will join Brady on the sideline Saturday.

Back at practice Friday Godwin (undisclosed) is present and participating at Friday's practice, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Godwin was sitting out practice earlier this week for undisclosed reasons, but he's back on the field for Friday's session, though his participation level remains unclear. There's no real injury concerns for the 25-year-old at this point as the Buccaneers prepare for the preseason opener Aug. 14 versus the Bengals.

No practice Tuesday Godwin (undisclosed) did not participate in Tuesday's practice, Jenna Laine of ESPN reports.

Impact Laine adds that Godwin looked very good over the first two days of camp, so physical injury doesn't appear to be the explanation for Tuesday's absence. However, the fifth-year wideout isn't dealing with any COVID-related issues either, as Joey Knight of the Tampa Bay Times relayed that Godwin was present as an observer but without a helmet.

No deal before deadline Godwin and the Buccaneers were unable to reach agreement on a long-term contract before Thursday's 4:00 p.m. ET deadline, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Panthers OT Taylor Moton was the only franchise-tagged player to sign a long-term contract in the days/hours leading up to the deadline. The Bucs reportedly intend to continue negotiations with Godwin next offseason, but he'll first play out 2021 under a franchise tender for $15.98 million. While the Bucs have a deep group of pass catchers, Godwin and Mike Evans both figure to see at least seven or eight targets per game from QB Tom Brady.

Working toward long-term deal Godwin and the Buccaneers will continue discussions Wednesday, hoping to reach agreement on a long-term contract before Thursday's 4 p.m. ET deadline for franchise-tagged players,...

Impact If no deal gets done, Godwin will be locked in for a $15.98 million franchise tender. The Bucs already have a host of veteran players on expensive contracts, but given that most of those expire after 2021 or 2022, it's easy enough to make room for Godwin if they backload cap hits on his long-term deal. The 25-year-old wide receiver played 12 games in the regular season and four more in the playoffs in 2020, catching 81 of 116 targets for 1,072 yards and eight touchdowns in 16 appearances overall. The Bucs have a similarly impressive roster in 2021 -- including excellent depth at wide receiver -- so while Godwin should remain efficient, his volume may not return to its 2019 level (121 targets in 14 games, 8.6 average).
