Trends


"Godwin has had some big seasons during his eight years in the league, but he was well on his way to his best one yet in 2024 prior to suffering a season-ending ankle injury in Week 7. In his seven games, the veteran receiver averaged 19.7 fantasy PPG and caught 79% of his passes, both of which ranked second at the position. Perhaps most notably, Godwin scored five TDs in seven games, which was somewhat unsustainable (2.1 xTD) but nonetheless a step forward after he totaled 10 TDs the prior three seasons (46 games). Godwin is still in his prime at age 29 and now seemingly Baker Mayfield's top target, but he's going to miss games to open the season. Once back, he's well positioned for a big comeback season and could rise as high as WR1 territory. He's best valued as a midround lottery ticket."


"Godwin's uninspiring finish was a somewhat fitting end to a career-worst season for the accomplished veteran, who failed to hit the 50-catch mark for the first time since his rookie 2017 campaign. He didn't make his season debut until Week 4 while completing his recovery from a 2024 ankle injury, and after posting matching three-catch, 26-yard efforts in his first two games, the Penn State product went on to log five consecutive absences due to a fibula injury. Godwin ultimately managed just one 100-yard performance and finished with a career-low 7.1 yards per target, making it close to a throwaway campaign from a fantasy perspective. He's under contract for the 2026 season at a significant cap hit of $33.7 million thanks in large part to a $22 million base salary, so a restructuring or potential parting of the ways appears to be in the cards this offseason."

I. Player News & Analysis

Trends


"Mayfield may have enjoyed his career renaissance in 2023, but he had his fantasy breakout in 2024. After finishing 18th or worse in fantasy PPG during each of his first six NFL seasons, Mayfield leapt to fourth in 2024. He finished no lower than fifth in pass attempts, completions, yards and TDs, while also easily posting a career high in rush yards. Mayfield completed 71% of his passes (third best) despite missing Chris Godwin and Mike Evans for chunks of the season, and he may be in even better shape in 2025 with Evans back, Godwin hopefully healthy and youngsters Emeka Egbuka and Jalen McMillan also in the mix. Mayfield benefits from a Bucs offense that has scored a league-high 76.6% of its TDs through the air since Todd Bowles became head coach in 2022. With consecutive seasons of good play under his belt, the 30-year-old is well positioned for another solid QB1 fantasy campaign."


"Mayfield averaged an impressive 9.2 yards per attempt while connecting with both Mike Evans and Cade Otton for passes of 20-plus yards. The veteran signal-caller's only touchdown toss came early on, as he connected with Otton from 18 yards out to cap off a nine-play game-opening drive. Mayfield repeatedly focused on Otton throughout the afternoon for several more productive gains, although his one interception in the second quarter at his own 39-yard line did lead to a Panthers touchdown. Mayfield wraps up the 2025 regular season with the lowest completion percentage (63.2) and passing yardage total (3,693) of his three-year Buccaneers tenure, but he and his teammates will be pulling for the Saints to defeat or tie the Falcons on Sunday in order to be able to continue playing in next weekend's wild-card round as the NFC South champions."

Baker Mayfield's passing yards have increased by 110.15% over the past 6 weeks.

Baker Mayfield's passing yards per attempt has increased by 61.54% over the past 6 weeks.

Baker Mayfield's rushing yards per attempt has increased by 139.68% over the past 10 weeks.

Baker Mayfield's rushing yards have increased by 132.76% over the past 10 weeks.

Baker Mayfield's interceptions have increased by 200.0% over the past 8 weeks.
