Jameis Winston’s future as a starter in the league took a huge hit when Tom Brady decided to come in and sign with the Tampa Bay Bucs.
Despite throwing for over 5,000 yards and having 33 touchdowns, his major flaw continued to be his turnovers as he tossed 30 interceptions in what was his final year in Tampa Bay.

Mike Florio believes New England could provide a revitalization of Winston’s career.
“I’d go with the New England Patriots,” Florio said on NBC Sports when asked to pick a darkhorse landing spot for Winston. “I mean, Brian Hoyer, Jarrett Stidham.
