Jameis Winston completed 10-of-16 passes for 101 yards in the Saints’ 18-17, Week 3 loss to the Packers.
Winston entered the game with a 17-0 lead in the third quarter after Derek Carr exited with a shoulder injury. He completed 62.5 percent of his passes in the day, with several nice throws to Chris Olave and Michael Thomas, but the Saints were still forced to punt on six consecutive drives after Winston entered the game. He would eventually put his team in position for a game-winning field goal, only to see the 46-yard attempt missed by Blake Grupe. If Carr is unable to go in Week 4, Winston would be in line for a revenge game start against the Buccaneers. He’d be hard to trust as anything more than a boom-or-bust QB2.
