Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Chris Godwin has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions due to a hamstring injury.

Godwin picked up the injury late in the third quarter with the Buccaneers ahead 24-10. He was leading the team with five catches for 121 yards before being carted to the locker room.

It's the second straight week in which Tampa Bay has lost a star wideout to a hamstring injury. Mike Evans exited Week 14's game after scoring a long touchdown and was held out of Sunday's contest against Detroit.

Fellow receiver Scott Miller also went down with a hamstring ailment against Detroit, leaving Breshad Perriman, Justin Watson, and Ishmael Hyman as the only healthy wideouts for Tampa Bay.
