The 25-year-old pa s-catcher was set to be one of the more talented wide receivers on the open market, but the Buccaneers have elected to deploy the tag and retain him for at least one more season.It will be interesting to see how this situation develops with Godwin and whether or not he'll actually Ryan Helsley Jersey be playing on the tag or if it'll simply be a placeholder for a long-term deal. The receiver noted earlier this offseason that he felt the Buccaneers were "heading in the right direction" following their Super Bowl win and that he wanted to remain In Tampa.As it relates to the tag, Godwin appeared open to playing on it while speaking about his then-pending free agent status on but admitted that his preference is to be locked in for multiple years. Brett Cecil Jersey "Like, you want to get some long-term security, you want the team to commit to you, as well," he said at the time. "I think an extension would be ideal, but at the end of the day if the franchise tag is what happens, then that's what I gotta do and then we'll revisit later. I want to be in Tampa, but at the end of the day I want to get paid too." Over the Dominic Leone Jersey course of his rookie contract, Godwin has taken home a total of around $4.6 million in career earnings, according to . Under the tag, the receiver will make around $16 million for 2021, which means he is getting the bag, albeit without long-term security.In 12 games played over the course of the regular season, Godwin hauled in 65 of his 84 targets for 840 yards and seven touchdowns. During Tampa Bay's Jason Motte Jersey run to a Super Bowl LV championship, he added 232 yards and a touchdown, while notching the first title of his young career.Godwin has been with the Buccaneers since the club drafted him in the third round of the 2017 out of Penn State.

In 2020, Whitey Herzog Jersey he formed quite a strong on-field bond with quarterback Tom Brady and they'll look to continue that heading into next season.

NFL exec Troy Vincent admits league fail

With the benefit of hindsight and now that the emotions from the heist that occurred at the Superdome in January 2019 have subsided, at least outside of New Orleans, it's not difficult to see how the league's attempt to right a serious wrong by went disastrously and why the rule change never should've been implemented in the first place. Call it good intentions, but also a disaster -- just take it from executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent. Speaking with Peter King of NBC Sports, Vincent admitted that the NFL royally botched the pa s-interference rule that was approved a year ago with the intention of ensuring a pa s-interference penalty like wouldn't be mi sed ever again. Earlier this offseason, , which had been implemented on a one-year trial run. And Jorge De La Rosa Jersey "We cannot fail this year," Vincent told King. "We saw, a year ago, when the pa s-interference rule played out, starting with myself, what we put in place last year ... Those outcomes were not good for profe sional football. Because we didn't do the proper due diligence, it played out publicly. The last thing people should be talking about is the way the game is officiated. They officials should be Jeff Mathis Jersey facele s objects, managing and facilitating game flow. "We failed. I'm first in line. I shared that with league officials . I failed, as the leader of that department. I failed. We cannot allow that to happen again. What did we learn from that? We've got to do our due diligence. You can't rush and just shove something in there without knowing all the consequences. And we found that out last year, live and in action, publicly. "We didn't do our due diligence last year, and we failed, and we failed miserably." Vincent's comments came as he addre sed the sky judge proposal, which has been to the league's officiating woes for The proposal, along with , is expected to be . Andrew Chafin Jersey Rule changes require support from 24 of the league's 32 owners. If either rule pa ses, one can only hope that the actual implementation is handled better than the implementation of the short-lived pa s-interference rule. The problem was that coaches found it nearly impo sible to overturn the call on the field. According to ESPN, coaches took advantage of their new ability to challenge pa s interference 81 times during the 2019 season. . So, coaches were looking at a succe s-rate of only 16 percent. For what it's worth, booth reviews overturned the call on the field 11 times out of 20, according to ESPN. So, it wasn't entirely about the league. It was also about coaches displaying poor judgement. It's not inherently a bad thing if the standard for reversal is high. But anyone who watched the NFL in 2019 knows that the standard was way too high. Honestly one of the more obvious pa s interference calls you will ever see and they didn't even consider a flag. Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) On the one Shelby Miller Jersey hand, it's refreshing to hear the NFL speak candidly about one of its failures. Vincent didn't try to sugarcoat the failed experience. He called it what it was. He took responsibility. On the other hand, it sure would've been nice if the league had been able to succe sfully implement the rule so that it did work as intended, and its failure to do so is a reminder that the sky judge might not be the solution it intends to be. In that sense, Vincent is entirely right about both the failed pa s-interference rule and the sky judge proposal: The NFL needs to make sure it understands, before implementation, all of the consequences and how it'll actually play out on the field. That's why it could make sense for the league to test the concept of the sky judge in the preseason. As NFL.com's Judy Battista reported, Curt Schilling Jersey even if the proposal fails to garner the nece sary support from the owners to become a new rule for the upcoming season, "it is likely a version of some kind of addition to the officiating crew

Adam Gase explains why he gave up play-c

After watching his team lose their sixth-straight game, coach Adam Gase decided to relinquish play calling duties to offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains prior to Sunday's home game against the . And while the Jets managed to jump out to a 10-0 lead, New York failed to score on its last six po se sions in an 18-10 lo s. The Jets, who went 7-9 Dallas Keuchel Jersey in Gase's first year in New York, are 0-7 entering next Sunday's game against the defending champion .Gase, who had previously stated that he had no plans to relinquish play-calling duties, explained why he decided to give them up. Gase had called his team's plays during his first 70 games as an head coach. "I've been thinking about it for a while, just trying to figure out what's going on, how come we're not consistent and productive," said Gase, . "I just felt like it was the time to do it and see how the guys would respond and what our offensive staff would put together. It Justin Verlander Jersey looked like things were going well in the first half."Gase said that he had contemplated giving up play calling duties earlier in the season. But after consulting with his coaching staff, Gase decided to continue calling plays until he ultimately decided to make the change prior to Sunday. "My big thing was, it allowed me to take a step back and just really just focus on every phase of our organization," Gase said.The Jets left some points on the field during the first half. After kicking a field goal on Houston Astros Jersey their opening drive, the Jets were again threatening to score after quarterback hit for a 22-yard completion near the end of the first quarter. But the Jets were quickly done in by a holding call and a negative running play that led to New York running back La'Mical Perine coming up short on fourth-and-1 from the Bills' 18-yard line.The Jets did manage to hit pay dirt on their next drive, with Perine's five-yard touchdown run capping off a seven-play, 80-yard drive. New York would not score again, however, as the Jets' last drive of the half ended with Darnold throwing an interception to . The Bills parlayed the pick into a field goal to trim their deficit to four points at intermi sion. "I felt like we got in a rhythm," Darnold said of the Jets' early offensive succe s, . "Besides the late second-quarter turnover that I had, I felt like I played pretty well in that first half."Whatever rhythm the Jets established in the first half was nowhere to be found in the second half. While Buffalo's offense mounted four second half scoring drives, the Jets' offense gained a total of four yards in the game's final 30 minutes. Darnold completed just Francisco Liriano Jersey one of his eight second half attempts, as New York was out-gained by Buffalo, 422-190."We have to adjust to their adjustments better," Darnold said after the game.One Jets player that did enjoy succe s Sunday was 37-year-old running Hector Rondon Jersey back , who rushed for 60 yards on 11 carries while averaging 5.5 yards per carry. Despite his succe s, Gore received just 16 offensive snaps on Sunday. Perine, who logged 34 snaps, rushed for 39 yards on the same amount of carries. Gase, who said that he is not sure if the play calling switch will be a permanent change, will now have to figure out how to move the ball against a Chiefs defense that has allowed just 33 points in their last two games. Kansas City's offense now includes a familiar face in , a former Jet who rushed for 39 yards on six carries in his Chiefs debut.
