So when Winston gives feedback on a player’s performance, it’s wise to listen. During an interview captured by NFL Network, Winston threw praise in the direction of his rookie tight end, O.J. Howard.
Winston has worked with plenty of big pass-catchers, too, making his comments even more meaningful. He spent two years playing with Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson, both of whom are 6-foot-5. Winston’s go-to target in college, Kelvin Benjamin, is also 6-foot-5.
How the Buccaneers choose to use Howard will become clear as training camp gets under way. The team already has a talented tight end in Cameron Brate, so it’s unnecessary to rush Howard into the lineup before he’s ready. Howard is expected to have some role in the Bucs’ offense this year, though. If spring workouts are any indication, it’s safe to assume he’ll be on the field in red zone situations, at the very least.
