The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had one of the NFL’s best offenses in 2024 and did so while playing large chunks of the season without their best offensive weapons — wide receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

With both Evans and Godwin back in the fold in 2025 and both presumably healthy and an up-and-coming wide receiver in Jalen McMillan, Bleacher Report’s Brent Sobleski ranked Tampa Bay’s wide receivers group No. 3 in the entire NFL following free agency.

That ranking comes thanks to Godwin giving the Buccaneers a massive hometown discount and returning on a 3-year, $66 million contract he signed on March 10.

“The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a special bond in their wide receiver room,” Sobleski wrote. “So much so, Chris Godwin could have left during free agency and made significantly more by joining the New England Patriots … Jalen McMillan injects some youth and upside in the group after adding 461 yards and eight touchdowns during his rookie campaign.”
