There's never been any questioning the passion that rookie quarterback Jameis Winston plays with. While it essentially oozes out of him on a weekly basis, it's obvious that his teammates have seen this passion as well.

According to SiriusXM NFL Radio's Twitter, Lavonte David is one of those players who has some very high praise for his young teammate.

That will to win was obvious in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were basically in a must-win situation heading into the game. Winston and company got the job done, and did so on both sides of the ball in an impressive divisional victory.
