Chris Godwin Week 6 Outlook - Buccaneers at Saints

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Thu, Oct 10th 2024, 10:32am EDT

Though Chris Godwin has failed to score in each of his last two games, he remains one of four wide receivers this season to post five straight top-40 fantasy finishes to begin the year. Look for that streak to continue when the Bucs travel to the Bayou to face the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are in the middle of the league in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers. New Orleans has only allowed one wide receiver to catch a touchdown against them, but they have allowed the fifth-most catches and seventh-most receiving yards to opposing wideouts. They also play a lot of man coverage, which means Godwin should face Alontae Taylor often in coverage. Taylor has allowed an 85 percent catch rate in his coverage. Even if Godwin does not score, he has proven he can be productive. Fantasy managers should expect another productive week from the veteran wide receiver.
