Jameis Winston Reportedly May Be Shut Down a 'Couple Weeks' with Shoulder Injury

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are reportedly considering shutting down quarterback Jameis Winston for a few weeks due to his shoulder issues, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.

Winston is dealing with an "AC joint sprain and a rear deltoid issue" and had both X-rays and an MRI on his shoulder after Sunday's 30-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Winston didn't play in the second half after reaggravating the injury, which also knocked him out of action in the team's Week 6 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.
