Jameis Winston leads the NFL in pass attemtps

by Brendan Galella | Browns Correspondent | Wed, Sep 28th 8:52pm EDT

Tampa Bay quarterback Jameis Winston has thrown the ball a league-high 142 times and has completed 86 passes, second only to Drew Brees this season.

Fantasy Impact:

The opportunity for Jameis Winston to carry the offense is clearly available, as the team essentially abandoned the run against Los Angeles with Doug Martin sidelined with a hamstring injury. Sunday Tampa Bay hosts the Broncos, a defense that has surrendered just 178.3 passing yards a game, fourth fewest in the NFL this season. The Buccaneers passed 58 times and ran just 22 times last week against the Rams, and four of the rush attempts came from Winston. Any offensive output the team has with Martin sidelined will likely come from its quarterback.
