Jameis Winston has season-high passing yards at the expense of Seattle

There have been ups and downs for Jameis Winston this season, but he is returning from the bye with his second-best performance of the season. We say that, because the five-touchdown showing in Week 1 against the Green Bay Packers will be hard to top.

Winston completed 15-of-30 pass attempts for 279 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. One of those touchdown passes came on the first half Hail Mary, where he dropped the football directly into the hands of Marquez Callaway. So far, this is the most passing yards Winston has posted in a single game this season. That can change come Monday night.

The Seahawks have given up 292.2 passing yards per game on average, the fifth-most in the NFL. So far, they have recorded two interceptions on the year, as opposed to their 10 touchdowns surrendered.

Winston stands to be in good shape to top 300 passing yards for the first time this campaign.
