Jameis Winston tosses pick-six on first career throw (Video)
Jameis Winston’s NFL career is off and running! Off and running the other way, that is.
Sunday’s game between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Tennessee Titans proved a compelling one with the professional debuts of Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota (the No. 1 and No. 2 overall picks in this year’s NFL Draft) coming against one another. And while Mariota dazzled on his opening drive with a 52-yard strike to Kendall Wright for a touchdown, Winston’s was well…noticeably less successful.
The Florida State product dropped back, faced some pressure on the outside from the Titans pass rush, and uncorked his first career throw. It was a complete duck as Tennessee cornerback Coty Sensabaugh jumped Adam Humphries’ route and took it to the house for an easy pick-six.

Well, at least Famous Jameis can match Mariota in terms of creating touchdowns for the Titans. Maybe this will get Mike Evans to change his mind.
