TAMPA, Fla.– One day after Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians saw multiple drops from his pass receivers, tight ends and running backs, he got fortunately that Chris Godwin, probably his most sure-handed receiver, will be back today versus the Denver Broncos. He likewise said hes not all set to make a modification at running back.
Godwin missed out on Week 2s game versus the Carolina Panthers because of a concussion.
” Chris passed the procedure. Hes prepared to go,” Arians said. “The something we understand is how sure-handed he is. Hes not gon na drop too many, if any. Im eagerly anticipating having him back this week.”
1 RelatedGodwin missed out on two days of practice last week due to the concussion, which he suffered on a fourth-quarter helmet-to-helmet struck by D.J. Swearinger. He was able to go back to some minimal practice on Friday– the concussion protocol permits light workout, football-specific workout and non-contact drills– however was not given clearance when tested Saturday.
Without him, the Bucs struggled– particularly in the second half, as quarterback Tom Brady had simply 19 passing lawns– although they still took out a 31-17 success.
” Oh gosh, we dropped about 125 lawns worth, about 7 drops, 2 touchdowns– 3 goals really,” Arians stated. “Tom must have had a 400-yard day if we simply capture it.”
Arians likewise stated that in spite of Leonard Fournettes 103 lawns hurrying, two touchdowns and 13 receiving yards, hes comfy with Ronald Jones remaining the starter and isnt making a change there. Jones hurried for 23 lawns on 7 carries and caught 2 passes for four backyards.
I believe everyones role is good right now. He still does not understand enough of this offense yet to be the starter,” Arians stated of Fournette.
” I love the way its at today. RoJo had a great run for a touchdown. Got us off. Had excellent blitz pickup. He did mess up the handoff on the draw, but thats easily correctable. To have Leonard can be found in fresh-legged in the 4th quarter and pound it like that– very couple of groups have that mix. Shady did an excellent job on 3rd down. I know that one catch he d like to have back that he dropped. I thought our backs played truly, truly well, aside from the handoff fumble.”
