So far, so good for TE Kellen Winslow in Tampa Bay.
According to the St. Petersburg Times, Winslow is fitting in well with his new teammates since being acquired in February and will be used extensively under new Bucs offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski.
Jagodzinski, a former tight ends coach with the Packers and Falcons, believes in the use of the position in an offense. It’s a background that could clearly benefit Winslow.
- “I’ve been very, very fortunate with the guys that I’ve had,” Jagodzinski said. “I had Bubba Franks as a rookie (in Green Bay). I had Alge Crumpler (in Atlanta), who was as good a tight end as I’ve been around. Now Jerramy (Stevens) and Kellen.
- “I use those guys a lot. Quite a bit.”
