Buccaneers' Jameis Winston: Logs 334 passing yards in Thursday's loss
Winston completed 26 of 46 passes for 334 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in Thursday's 19-14 loss to the Patriots. He also gained 11 yards on three rushes, fumbled twice and recovered a fumble.
Winston's stat line was once again aesthetically pleasing by game's end, but the end result was still disappointing from the Bucs' perspective. It was a rollercoaster contest for Tampa even with the relatively low score, as despite three Nick Folk missed field goals, Winston still had a chance to pull out a win on the game's last play. However, he was unable to connect with 2017 first-rounder O.J. Howard on the last-gasp attempt, sealing the hard-fought win over the Patriots. Winston did lead the Bucs on an impressive nine-play, 74-yard drive late in the fourth quarter that culminated in an 18-yard touchdown throw to Cameron Brate, the signal caller's sixth of the season. The 23-year-old has three consecutive 300-yard efforts and has thrown at least one touchdown in each game, while all three of his interceptions came in a Week 3 loss to the Vikings. He'll look to get the Bucs back in the win column in a tough Week 6 road matchup against the Cardinals.
