“Jameis Winston Secures Unexpected Key Role with Cleveland Browns”
The Cleveland Browns made a strong showing against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2, improving their performance significantly from their previous week’s heavy defeat to the Cowboys.
One notable development in the Week 2 game was the involvement of backup quarterback Jameis Winston, despite Deshaun Watson remaining the starter. Winston made two crucial appearances, executing successful quarterback sneaks on both occasions, showcasing his effectiveness in this role.
Could this mean Winston will have a more prominent role moving forward?
Watson has struggled with injuries since joining the Browns, which might explain his absence from QB sneaks. Winston, on the other hand, has proven adept at these plays, making it logical for the Browns to utilize him in this capacity.
While other teams might eventually catch on to this strategy if Winston continues to come in for sneaks, it remains a viable approach for now. If Watson were to get injured, Winston would step into the starting role, continuing to handle the QB sneaks without much disruption.
Though some Browns fans have questioned Watson’s performance and might have preferred Winston as the starter, the backup’s involvement in the offense is a positive step. Whether the Browns will maintain this strategy and continue using Winston for quarterback sneaks remains to be seen.
