Winston's private coach George Whitfield told Yahoo's Charles Robinson at his Pro Day that he was told Winston was "shadowed" by someone from an NFL team on a flight in February.
From Robinson:
Jameis Winston's QB guru, @georgewhitfield, said he was told that Jameis was secretly shadowed by an #NFL team on one of his combine flights
- Charles Robinson (@CharlesRobinson) March 31, 2015Apparently a rep from an #NFL team told @georgewhitfield that Jameis Winston had been watched on the flight by another NFL team. Interesting
- Charles Robinson (@CharlesRobinson) March 31, 2015Winston had numerous off-field incidents at Florida State. He was accused, but not charged, with sexual assault. He was cited for stealing crab legs from a grocery store. During his last season, he was suspended for getting on a table at the FSU student union and shouting an obscenity.
In December, SI's Peter King wrote that Winston would be "subjected to a predraft background check that will make the scrutiny of Johnny Manziel last year look like a casual glance" because of these incidents. That appears to be correct.
