The Facts: For the second straight offseason, Winston has admitted he wants to get in better shape.
Diehards Line:
During the Rookie Symposium last June, the QB told NFL.com he wanted to "get back skinny" before his first pro season. After a solid rookie campaign -- 58.3 completion percentage, 4,042 passing yards, 22 TDs, 15 INTs, 84.2 passer rating -- Winston made the Pro Bowl (after several QBs dropped out). Being surrounded by some of the NFL's best made Winston realize he has more work to do to get ripped. During a lengthy Q&A with TheMMQB, Winston was asked what he learned at the Pro Bowl. "The most important thing I learned is I have to get my body in shape, because those men look good," Winston said. "Not just the other quarterbacks-everyone. Their bodies look good. But also, Russell Wilson's preparation at the Pro Bowl. You know, it's a relaxing event, and he is still doing everything the right way. He is the first one to the huddle, leading guys in stretches, running everywhere you go." Conditioning aside, Winston certainly became a better player as the season progressed. The Bucs promoted Dirk Koetter to head coach in order to foster more growth from the No. 1 overall pick. As NFL.com suggests, with a full offseason to improve, we could see a sophomore leap from Jameis, including in the fitness realm.
