During a locker room interview, the veteran signal-caller shared his thoughts on the depth chart."As a competitor, you know you want to be the starter," Winston said. "But like I said, I prepare to be a starter. I know I'm a starter in this league. But I think you have to be grateful for your role."My role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson being the best that they could be while preparing to be the best that I can be. So, no matter if I'm three, 33 or whatever, this is my first year being No. 19. So, it's always a first for everything. So I focus on what I would love. What I would love is for this team to have success."Winston spent last season with the Cleveland Browns.
