Buccaneers To Use Franchise Tag On Chris Godwin 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Mar 9, 2021 6:43 pm

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will use the franchise tag on Chris Godwin.

The tag will close $16.5 million and they also won\'t be able to use it on Shaq Barrett, who earned $15.8 million last season under the tag.

Both Barrett and Lavonte David will come free agents.

The Bucs will need to make a series of cap-saving moves to retain these players, as they had only a projected $15 million in salary-cap space before tagging Godwin.
