Jameis Winston

Jameis Winston completed 18-of-36 pass attempts for 366 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception, while also rushing four times for 13 yards and catching his only target for 33 yards and one touchdown in the Giants' 34-27 Week 12 loss to the Lions.

Fantasy Impact

Winston took advantage of an underwhelming Detroit defensive front, recording multiple touchdowns for the first time in two starts in place of the injured Jaxson Dart. The veteran signal-caller remains difficult for fantasy managers to trust if Dart remains sidelined, with a Week 13 matchup against the New England Patriots up next.

Jameis Winston will draw the start for the Giants in Week 12.

Fantasy Impact

Winston turned in a forgettable performance in his first start behind center, turning the ball over twice at crucial times against the Packers. The veteran quarterback cannot be trusted if No. 1 signal caller Jaxson Dart (concussion) remains out for a difficult Week 12 matchup against the Detroit Lions.

Giants interim coach Mike Kafka said Jameis Winston will start at QB in Week 11 with Jaxson Dart in concussion protocol.

With Brian Daboll fired, it only took one day for Winston to be elevated ahead of Russell Wilson on the depth chart. Winston will make his first start of the season with Jaxson Dart in the concussion protocol.

Jameis Winston has been elevated to the No.2 QB on the Giants and will start for the Giants if Jaxson Dart misses Sunday’s game due to a concussion.

Fantasy Impact

We’re back! While of course fantasy managers everywhere love Dart and his toughness and will to win, everyone would also agree that if they could pick, Winston is who they would want to start in Dart’s place, and that’s exactly what is happening. Sadly, Winston won’t have great weapons to throw to, but given his style of play via deep shots or peppering his top target, we could still see some fantasy goodness this weekend. Though to be fair, he’s facing the Packers.
