Bucs head coach Dirk Koetter compares Chris Godwin to Roddy White

TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Dirk Koetter doesn't want to get carried away, but he thinks rookie Chris Godwin is starting to resemble a certain wide receiver he used to coach with the Atlanta Falcons -- four-time Pro Bowler Roddy White.

"He does compete for the ball," Koetter said of Godwin. "And it's way, way, way too early to say this, but in that respect, Chris reminds me a little bit of Roddy White. He's similar size, a big guy that competes for the ball."

Godwin has been one of the more consistent receivers for the Bucs this offseason.
