Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin has suffered a serious leg injury in the final moments of Monday night's game against the Baltimore Ravens.
Godwin was carted off the field with an air cast over his left leg. An air cast is typically used for more serious injuries to keep limbs secure.
Godwin suffered the injury after making a catch and being tackled to the turf.
As Godwin laid on the turf, his left leg can be seen twisted the wrong direction.
After medical personnel tended to Godwin and applied an air cast to his leg, his Buccaneers teammates were distraught as they surrounded him.

Tampa Bay quarterback Baker Mayfield was seen slamming his helmet into the turf in frustration because of the injury.
Footage of Godwin not being able to walk at all and being taken to the trainers room emerged after the Buccaneers loss.
Baltimore defeated Tampa Bay 41-31 with the Ravens nearly scoring all of their points unanswered through the dominance of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry.
The Buccaneers had already lost top wide receiver Mike Evans to a leg injury earlier in the game.
Now, the Buccaneers will likely head into the immediate future without their top two wide receivers, sitting in second in the NFC South.
Godwin has spent his entire NFL career with the Buccaneers since entering the league in 2017.
