Chris Godwin, a wide receiver for the Buccaneers, will miss the rest of the season after tearing his anterior cruciateolateral (ACL) in Sunday's loss to the New Orleans Saints.

According to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, Tom Brady thinks that the league should protect its players better.

You can't hit anyone in the knees except for the receiver. Brady said that it doesn't make sense. You can't hit a defensive lineman in the knees, you can't hit a quarterback in the knees, and you can't hit a punt in the knees. It needs to be addressed.
