The Facts: The Bucs have confirmed that Winston will start Sunday against the Packers.

Diehards Line:After undergoing an MRI on his right (throwing) shoulder Monday, Winston returned to the practice field Wednesday. HC Dirk Koetter made the announcement after that session ended. The Bucs have gone 2-1 since Winston's absence behind backup quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, beating the Jets and Dolphins before suffering a 34-20 loss at Atlanta Sunday. Winston was 2-2 as a starter before he suffered a sprained AC joint in his shoulder in the first half at Arizona in Week 5. He went 0-4 after the injury before doctors decided to shut him down and allow the shoulder to heal. Winston hasn't thrown a pass since the Bucs' Nov. 5 loss at New Orleans. Now we'll all get to see how he rebounds in a favorable matchup.
