That revelation comes from Winston's quarterback guru, the highly respected George Whitfield Jr., who ran Winston's passing performance during Tuesday's pro day.

No [Jameis wasn't aware of it], but I had a team official tell me that. They were aware of another team that said they wanted to do that."

"When you go to the [NFL scouting] combine, the league has a flight deal, a flight manifest," Whitfield said.
