Unsurprisingly, starting quarterback Jameis Winston was the star of the first episode of "Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers," which premiered Tuesday night.

In the episode, the former Heisman Trophy winner and rising NFL star showed off his humble beginnings in Bessemer, Ala.

"I don't know how, but like seven of us slept in this room right here," Winston said, showing off his childhood room.

"Three people used to sleep in this bed. There were toes in everybody's face."

He then pointed to the tap his family used to drink from, and the spot off the porch where the men used the washroom when the only one in the house was occupied.

Winston's already come a long way, from those beginnings to being a budding superstar at age 23.
