SIT ‘EM

48. . Quarterback. Buccaneers. Jameis Winston. 1. player

The biggest thing to note with Jameis Winston is that he was indeed injured last week and barely played in Arizona as a result. As of now, the former number one overall pick is questionable to play this week, but even if he DOES play, I’d recommend keeping him on the bench.

This is not a good match-up for whoever plays quarterback for Tampa Bay on Sunday.

The Bucs will face the stout Bills defense this weekend. This is a unit that has limited quarterbacks to just two passing touchdowns and has not allowed them to record more than 13 points in fantasy, both according to Michael Fabiano of NFL.com. Winston hasn’t looked all that great this year, so sitting him against a tough Bills team is a wise decision.

There’s a good chance, of course, that Winston won’t even suit up, but I’d be looking for another option for this weekend’s slate of games. Famous Jameis has thrown for 1,259 yards, seven touchdowns, and three picks so far this year. His Bucs are 2-3 at the moment.

Oh, and don’t scoop up Ryan Fitzpatrick. This is not a good match-up for whoever plays quarterback for Tampa Bay on Sunday.
