• Browns' Jameis Winston: Struggles in ugly loss

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Winston completed 26 of 46 passes for 235 yards with a touchdown and three interceptions and rushed five times for 27 yards in the Browns' 27-10 loss to the Chargers on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered. Winston padded his stats some late and threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Cedric Tillman after the game was out of reach, but the overarching theme to his afternoon was constant struggles to find open targets. The Chargers defense was relentless throughout the day, sacking Winston six times and picking him off on three occasions in their own territory, including twice in the red zone. Despite the ragged performance against a talented unit, Winston shouldn't be in any danger of losing his grip on the starting job heading into a Week 11 road matchup against the Saints following a Week 10 bye.

• Browns' Jameis Winston: QBs to Sit

  5D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Winston was awesome in his first start for the Browns in Week 8 against Baltimore with 29.5 Fantasy points, but that was a great matchup. This week, Winston is facing a Chargers defense that is No. 7 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and Bo Nix in Week 6 is the lone quarterback against Los Angeles with multiple passing touchdowns. I'm only starting Winston in Superflex and two-quarterback leagues for Week 9.

• Browns' Jameis Winston: Week 9 Waiver Priority List

  7D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Winston took advantage of a great matchup in Week 8 against Baltimore and scored 29.6 Fantasy points. He has a tough matchup in Week 9 against the Chargers before a bye in Week 10, but I like his matchup against the Saints in Week 11, which is a revenge game. It doesn't get any easier after that, with Pittsburgh in Week 12, Denver in Week 13, Pittsburgh again in Week 14, and Kansas City in Week 15. That said, it's Winston, and he always has the potential for big games -- and mistakes -- no matter the opponent. He's worth adding in all leagues for 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

• Browns' Jameis Winston: Entrenched as starter

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Winston will continue to start at quarterback heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Chargers, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports. Stefanski praised Winston's ability to go through progressions in his first start of the 2024 campaign, an upset 29-24 win over the Ravens on Sunday. Winston completed 27 of 41 passes for 334 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions versus Baltimore, a stat line superior in terms of both yards and TDs to any of the seven starts that Deshaun Watson (Achilles) logged for the Browns prior to going down with a season-ending injury. Winston connected with Cedric Tillman on a pair of touchdowns Sunday, as well as one to tight end David Njoku, with all three of his scores coming on passes of 20-plus yards. Winston's aggressive tendencies and willingness to push the ball downfield will place him on the fantasy radar for the remainder of the season, though he faces a tough matchup against Los Angeles in Week 9.

• Browns' Jameis Winston: Leads Browns to upset win

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Winston completed 27 of 41 passes for 334 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions in Sunday's 29-24 win over the Ravens. Winston drew his first start with the Browns and outdueled Lamar Jackson in a back-and-forth contest. He was aided by volume but still managed 8.1 yards per attempt and five completions of at least 20 yards. Additionally, Winston showed rapport with all of his key skill-position players, highlighted by a pair of touchdown passes to Cedric Tillman of 22 and 38 yards as well as another to David Njoku for a 23-yard score. He was bailed out at the end of the game when an interception was dropped by Kyle Hamilton, but Winston's performance was strong overall and lifted the entire Cleveland offense.
