Quarterback-(2)

Jameis Winston, Ryan Griffin

The man, the myth, the legend, Jameis Winston is set to have another star studded year on his way to becoming the best quarterback in the history of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers franchise. After another successful season at helm with the Bucs, Winston looks to continue his streak of 4,000 yard seasons with the newly refurbished Bucs air attack.

After spending two years as a third string quarterback for the Bucs, we thought Ryan Griffin finally had his shot of becoming the true backup. Due to Mike Glennon leaving this off-season to Chicago, Griffin was expected to step in without any hiccups. However, General Manager Jason Licht decided to sign Ryan Fitzpatrick, so expect him to get the nod as the backup for the 2017 campaign.
