The Facts: How often can a player reset an NFL franchise's career passing record before his 24th birthday? Winston has a shot to do that with the Bucs this fall. Winston is entering his third NFL season, but his promising start -- combined with the Bucs' middling quarterback history -- could get him the team's career passing touchdown mark when he's still only 23 years old.
Diehards Line:Winston has thrown for 50 touchdowns in his first two seasons, so to pass Josh Freeman's franchise mark of 80, he'd need to throw 31 this year, which of course would reset the Bucs' single-season record of 28, set by Winston this past year. But with the Bucs adding receiver DeSean Jackson and drafting tight end O.J. Howard and so on, it's certainly possible for the upcoming season. Winston in time may collect all the Bucs' passing records -- he's seventh already in passing yards with 8,132 and could break Vinny Testaverde's career mark of 14,820 in 2018 if he stays healthy, and should move into the top five this season. In addition, Winston and Mike Evans need only 10 touchdowns to become the Bucs' most prolific career TD-pass combo. They have 15 in their two seasons together, and the franchise record is just 24, set by Josh Freeman and Mike Williams. Fantasy owners can reasonably expect another very solid season.
