Jameis Winston Posts Decent Fantasy Line on Tough Day

Jameis Winston Headshot

Browns QB Jameis Winston tossed a pair of INTs and fumbled once -- though he recovered it -- in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. He otherwise threw for 212 yards and 2 TDs on 24-of-41 passing. That's a lackluster 58.5% completions and 5.2 yards per attempt. Winston added 28 rushing yards on 4 attempts.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Winston has turned the ball over 2+ times in four of his six starts. And he got a bit lucky to avoid throwing any INTs in the Week 8 Baltimore game.

Pro Football Focus charged him with three turnover-worthy throws in that contest, but none got picked.

Winston gets an interesting matchup with the Chiefs in Week 15. K.C. opened the year as a tough defense but hit Week 14 as a basically neutral matchup for QB scoring.

The Chiefs also entered Week 14 ranked seventh in the league in takeaways.

After that comes a high-upside matchup with the Bengals, the third-friendliest QB defense by our adjusted fantasy points allowed.

We'll see how those two games go ahead of a Week 17 home date with the Dolphins.
