VIDEO: Bucs HC Todd Bowles Is Taking Serious Heat After ESPN’s Cameras Caught His Classless Actions On The Field Following Chris Godwin’s Gruesome Injury
Todd Bowles took some heat for appearing to laugh after Chris Godwin’s season came to a premature end on Monday night.
Bowles and the Buccaneers lost their prime receiving options in the space of one game. Mike Evans aggravated a hamstring injury and is likely to miss time, while Godwin sustained a dislocated ankle and is done for 2024.
“We’re just trying to win the ballgame,” the head coach told reporters after being asked why the latter was on the field with the Bucs down by 10 with less than a minute to go. “We’re still down 10, trying to get extra points, kick another onside kick. It just happened.
“We’ve got our guys, we’re playing everybody we’ve got. It’s unfortunate he got hurt. We feel bad about that. But he’s a football player, and he wanted to be in the game just like Baker [Mayfield] and everybody else wanted to be in the game.”
Todd Bowles Gets Slammed For Laughing
Bowles has been hit with some heavy criticism over the above, but he also got flak for what he was seen doing in the immediate aftermath.
Various social media accounts have shared videos of Bowles laughing in the wake of the injury.
“Todd Bowles laughing after Chris Godwin’s season ending injury it’s not funny at all, especially when Godwin is about to hit free agency,” one wrote as a caption. “That kind of reaction is unacceptable. Todd should get dismissed for this behaviour, Godwin broke his ankle just before 45 seconds of game end against Ravens,”
To be fair, Bowles’ laughter did not seem malicious at all, as it appeared he couldn’t believe he’d just lost two of his best players.
Most fans agreed with that notion.
“Probably laughing at the fact Evans now Godwin both in the same game, “just my luck” kind of vibe. Man you people so quick to jump on s**t it’s crazy 😂,” a user noted.
“You can clearly see this isn’t a hysterical laugh but a laugh from disbelief. Rubbed his eyes and folded his arms. He knows his job is done. He lost Mike, the game, then Chris. I would laugh too. One of those “you gotta be kidding me” laughs. Bad take,” someone else wrote.
“I don’t think he was “laughing”.. he looks nervous and in disbelief,” another added.
Godwin will have surgery to repair his ankle this week, but his season is over. The timing really sucks for him as he will be a free agent next summer, and the injury could come into play.
