Godwin's injury, which occurred in the game's final minute, will sideline the receiver indefinitely. Godwin's absence will leave a big hole in the Buccaneers' offense; the eighth-year player out of Penn State was among the league leaders with 50 receptions for 576 yards.

ESPN declined to show a replay of the hit, and after coming back from a brief commercial break, the broadcast showed Godwin on a cart with his left leg in an air cast. The injury was a major blow for a Buccaneers team that also lost receiver Mike Evans to a hamstring injury earlier in the game.

On the ESPN broadcast on Monday night, both Troy Aikman and Joe Buck wondered if the Tampa Bay Buccaneers should run out the clock and not continue to put their players in harm's way, as they were down 10 points to the Baltimore Ravens with less than a minute to go.
