Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston may never be considered one of the NFL’s most mobile quarterbacks, but that doesn’t mean his feet aren’t viable weapons.
Winston scrambled three times for 24 yards and a touchdown during the Bucs’ 23-20 overtime victory over the Atlanta Falcons last week and has now run 24 times for 91 yards and two touchdowns this season.
It’s a modest degree of success, but it’s enough to have prompted the thought in Winston’s mind that he could indeed help the Bucs out by running the ball every once in a while.
“I’ve been trying to talk to Coach about putting in some QB runs,’’ Winston said with a laugh this week.
