Scouting report

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Detroit Lions

Jameis Winston returned last week and had a solid outing, throwing for 270 yards with 2 touchdowns and no interceptions (although he did have a fumble). He now has multiple-touchdown performances in four of his seven games he's started and finished, and averaged 295 yards in those games as well. That's pretty solid for a fantasy QB.

He'll look to continue his success this week in a favorable matchup against Detroit. The Lions have allowed the sixth-most passing yards in the league, which means Winston should have no problem finding his targets. The Bucs QB can be viewed as a low-end QB1 this week.

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Green Bay Packers

Jameis Winston returns this week after missing the last three games with a shoulder injury. Before his exit, Winston was playing quite well with multiple 300-yard games. However, his injury and time away make him a bit of a risk this week against the Packers.

Still, it's a favorable matchup for Winston. Just last week, Green Bay's defense allowed Pittsburgh's Ben Roethlisberger to throw for over 300 yards and 4 touchdowns. That performance just goes to show that Green Bay's pass defense is nothing special.

Winston should be viewed as a low-end QB1 option this week.

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at New Orleans Saints

Jameis Winston was a mess last week, throwing for just 210 yards with no touchdowns and three turnovers. Prior to this game, he was throwing for 300 yards and multiple touchdowns with ease, but that is no longer a certainty.

He could bounce back this week, but this Saints defense has actually been very impressive this season. New Orleans has held opposing passers to no passing touchdowns in four of their last five games.

On the other hand, though, these are two very high-powered offenses and this game has a chance to become a shootout. We like Winston as a low-end QB1 play this week.

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Carolina Panthers

Jameis Winston returned last week after missing part of Week 6 with an injury, and he looked just fine. Winston threw for a season-high 384 yards against the Bills, finishing with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception. Winston now has 300+ yards in four straight games (excluding the game he didn't finish).

Winston gets a somewhat difficult matchup this week against the Panthers. Carolina has held QBs to no scores in three games this season, but they have allowed some big games to the position as well. Considering how much Winston likes to throw the ball, we expect he'll be just fine, and he can be viewed as a QB1 this week.

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Buffalo Bills

Jameis Winston says he's ready to play on Sunday after leaving last week's game early with a shoulder injury. Before last week, Winston had thrown for 300+ yards in three straight games. The Bucs continued that tradition last week with Winston finishing with 61 yards while backup Ryan Fitzpatrick put up 290 yards and 3 touchdowns.

The purpose of that is to say the Bucs' passing attack has been one of the league's best this season, at least for fantasy purposes. If Winston is healthy and able to play this week, he could find success. The only big problem is he faces a tough matchup in the Bills.

The Bills are allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs this season, highlighted by the fact they've only given up 2 passing scores all season. Winston is a middle-of-the-pack option with his injury and poor matchup.

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Arizona Cardinals

As expected, Jameis Winston was able to take advantage of the poor Patriots defense last week, throwing for 334 yards. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, though, he only had one touchdown in the game. It's still a decent outing, though, as Winston now has three straight games of 300 yards or more.

His success should continue again this week in a favorable matchup against the Cardinals. Arizona just allowed a 300-yard game to the Eagles last week, and have given up the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing QBs this season.

Winston should be viewed a strong QB1 play this week.

TB QB Jameis Winston - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. New England Patriots

Jameis Winston has now had back-to-back multi-touchdown, 300-yard passing games. His Week 4 performance (third game of the season) was his best so far as he finished with 3 touchdowns and 0 interceptions. He's clearly found a groove this season and is putting up big numbers.

We expect Winston's success to continue this week as he gets a juicy matchup against the Patriots. New England's defense was feared a year ago, but this season they have allowed the most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. Every week the Pats have allowed a 300-yard passer, which bodes well for Winston.

Given Winston's success early in the season and this matchup against the Patriots, the Tampa Bay QB should be viewed as a must-start option. He's easily one of the best QB plays this week.
