Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston will enter the 2015 NFL Draft
According to a report by CBSSports.com’s Jason La Canfora, Jameis Winston has decided to leave FSU and enter the NFL Draft. He will stay enrolled in school, but will leave for the league.
Now, however, in the face of the multiple investigations into him, and what has become an adversarial relationship with school officials (excluding coach Jimbo Fisher and key members of the athletic department) it is virtually certain Winston is declaring no matter what happens in the second half of the season.
La Canfora said there have been several rumors that Winston would drop out of school because of his pending student code of conduct hearing and allegations he was paid for signing memorabilia, but La Canfora said that’s not likely to happen.
Some have suggested that Florida State star quarterback Jameis Winston might drop out of school as a way to avoid the institution’s investigation into prior sexual assault charges brought against him, as well as an inquiry into whether he violated NCAA rules for being compensated for autographs, but several sources close to him said that is in no way a consideration.
Winston intends to fight vigilantly to maintain his innocence in both instances.
