3. Chris Godwin – WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

2020 Stats: 41 catches for 465 yards and 3 touchdowns

When healthy, Chris Godwin is one of the top-five most physically dominant wide receivers in the NFL, but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers star has been anything but.

Godwin has dealth with various nagging injuries all season, including a broken finger that required surgery and forced him to play the last several games with a splint.

However, Godwin is still averaging 11.3 yards per reception and currently ranks 48th in the league in receiving yards, despite missing four games.

One of quarterback Tom Brady’s favorite targets, if the Buccaneers make a push for the NFC South championship, Godwin is going to play a vital role in the offense’s success, and he could have a chance at padding his stats down the stretch and picking up some additional Pro Bowl votes.

Likewise, Godwin has plenty of name recognition to help him climb up the voting rankings.
