The Tampa Bay Buccaneers turned to backup Ryan Fitzpatrick for the second half of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints after Jameis Winston appeared to aggravate an injury to his throwing shoulder earlier in the game.
Winston took a hit from Alex Okafor and was driven into the turf on a play in the first half.
Winston exited the game after going 7-for-13 for 67 yards and the Bucs trailing 16-3.
Fitzpatrick replaced Winston in a Week 6 game against the Arizona Cardinals and went on to go 22-for-32 with three touchdowns and two interceptions.
Tampa Bay has declared Winston questionable to return.
