Jameis Winston to start at QB for the Giants in interim coach Mike Kafka’s first big decision
With Jaxson Dart in concussion protocol, Jameis Winston is taking over as the New York Giants’ starting quarterback for their game Sunday against Green Bay.
As the Green Bay Packers prepare for one of the most chaotic quarterbacks in modern NFL history in Jameis Winston, it presents an opportunity for third-year cornerback Carrington Valentine to make some splash plays for his defense.
Jameis Winston was the third-string quarterback for the Giants for the first 10 weeks of the season and there's no guarantees that the 11-year veteran will keep finding jobs in the NFL, but he said on Wednesday that he "never thought about" the possibility that he'd played his final game.

Week 11 fantasy football boom-or-bust players to consider starting, featuring Jameis Winston, Tyler Allgeier, Emari Demercado, Rashid Shaheed, and Greg Dortch.
Jaxson Dart replaced Wilson, but in his seventh start, the first-round rookie sustained a concussion in Sunday’s 24-20 loss to the Chicago Bears and won’t be available against the Packers. Instead of returning Wilson to the lineup, Kafka will give Winston his first action of the season.
