Jameis Winston to be shut down "at least two weeks"

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston will be shut down for "at least" the next two weeks according to Jenna Laine of ESPN.

An MRI reportedly revealed "more damage" but nothing structural.  The timing is certainly right with the Bucs going nowhere this season and Winston being unable to finish two of the last four games.  Winston also seemed in need of a mental and emotional reset after Sunday's blowout loss at New Orleans.  These will be the first regular season games missed by the former No.1-overall pick in his three-year NFL career.  Hopefully, the Bucs have learned from the cautionary tale of the Colts and Andrew Luck about what NOT to do with an injured franchise quarterback.

Veteran journeyman Ryan Fitzpatrick will start for the Bucs in Week 10 in what could be an entertaining and fantasy-worthy game against his former team the New York Jets.

If the Bucs shut him down for anything less than the rest of the season... they are complete and total morons.

DON'T. F*CK. AROUND. WITH. A. QB's. THROWING. SHOULDER.

The shoulder is a complex device with countless moving parts.  Injuries can cause weakness, changes in arm angles and mechanics, constant pain/discomfort, etc...
