Buccaneers | Chris Godwin talked up by coach
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin will see plenty of time in the slot this year and head coach Bruce Arians believes the third-year wide receiver can catch 100 passes.
Footballguys View: Godwin could play the ‘Larry Fitzgerald’ role in the Arians offense. As that sort of possession receiver, he could be in line for 100 catches in 2019. We love Godwin in dynasty leagues and he should have plenty of value in PPR leagues this season.
Jets | Le’Veon Bell’s workload will be monitored
New York Jets RB Le’Veon Bell won’t be burnt out with his new team if head coach Adam Gase has his way. Gase said the Jets will keep an eye on Bell’s practice snaps and snap count in games. ‘This is not going to be [a situation] where we burn him out in the first six months,’ Gase said.
Footballguys View: It’s been some time since Bell was toting the rock in a regular season game. The Jets are wise to monitor his touches, not only in practices but in games as well. Bell should still post strong RB1 numbers in 2019, this just means they’ll give him a breather from time to time.
