WR Chris Godwin underwent a minor procedure this morning to have pins removed from his broken finger.

The tweet says nothing about potentially missing time so we can assume Godwin will be good to go coming off a bye and in a great Week 14 matchup against the Vikings. We'll continue to monitor the situation as it's possible he may be held back a little in practice.

Bruce Arians said that Mike Evans was open a bunch on Sunday. “He didn’t get targeted. That’s all. Mike was open."

Evans was targeted a team-high six times, as were RB Leonard Fournette and Godwin. Brown was targeted five times. Evans led the group with a 4-64-0 line so it sounds like maybe Arians wasn't happy with Brady. There wasn't much positive in the Bucs loss to the Saints on Sunday night.

Lost in the stunning Tampa Bay blowout loss was the fact that Antonio Brown is back.

He’s not all the way back. He caught only three passes for 31 yards on five targets, and he stopped on one route that resulted in an interception. But he was able, after playing only one game in nearly two years, to participate in 39 offensive snaps.

The story noted that’s more than anyone expected from Brown, who joined the Buccaneers only recently and who first became eligible to practice just five days ago. Brown also had an impressive back-end-of-the-ball catch on a laser from quarterback Tom Brady. It happened well after the outcome of the game was no longer in doubt, but it was a glimpse of what he and the Bucs can do, the story went on to say. Evans and Godwin were each targeted 6 times while Brown had five targets.

Bucs WR Chris Godwin is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints, according to Greg Auman of The Athletic.

Head coach Bruce Arians expects Godwin to play, but know that he could be a decoy coming back from a broken finger.

Bucs head coach Bruce Arians told reporters that WR Chris Godwin "caught the ball fine" at Friday's practice. "I would anticipate him probably playing," said Arians.

It is difficult to trust anything Bruce Arians says, but if the Bucs can have a full group of receivers for Sunday's matchup against the Saints, it would be a boon for Tom Brady and the offense.
