A few weeks ago, reports came out that seemed to indicate the end was near for Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston, who has failed to meet expectations since the team drafted him first overall in the 2015 NFL Draft.

And at 2-6, the Bucs look poised to miss the postseason once again under Winston. Couple that with the fact that the 2020 NFL Draft is rich with talented young quarterbacks, and it seems like the best thing for the Buccaneers going forward would be to start over at the position.

Well, not so fast.

According to CBS Sports NFL Insider Pete Prisco, the Buccaneers could very well bring Winston back in 2020. Appearing on 95.3 WDAE in Tampa, Prisco had this to say.

“I think ’s coming back. Just reading between the lines with Bruce Arians, and talking to people in Tampa, they like what they’ve seen from him. It’s just the inconsistency, the turnovers. It’s the same old story, but he can go out and throw you 350 and three . And look what he’s building there with Godwin and Evans. Those guys are having great years… If I’m the Bucs, I’m keeping him.”

That’s a ringing endorsement from Prisco, and it could very well be true. The Bucs record makes you think it’s all Winston’s fault, but the defensive secondary is the worst in the NFL and they are second to last in scoring defense. If they do keep Winston, I doubt it will be on a long-term contract, though. You just can’t ignore those turnovers.

The Bucs return home in Week 10 to take on the Arizona Cardinals in what will be their first true home game since Week 3. The good news? The Bucs are actually favored for the first time in five games.
