Head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Lovie Smith, has confirmed that rookie Jameis Winston will be the starting quarterback for the 2015 regular season in the NFL, he made the announcement at a press conference, and said the former quarterback for the Florida State University Seminoles already knew the news in advance, although the decision has not yet been formalized with the rest of campus.

We’re excited about it. There are many things involved (in the decision), we had a great evaluation on him, ” he said in remarks broadcast on the official website of the buccaneers franchise.
Winston and company will jump right into the practice matches starting this Saturday for the traditional training camp, where Winston aims to strengthen the good team triangle built by their receivers Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans. “We brought him to be our quarterback and we feel we’re ready to take the next step. Jameis let go through the whole process in the preseason, with limited repetitions and working with both groups. He was put in that position but, eventually, we put it as number one and let it go, ” he said.
