Winston's presence under center significantly boosts the fantasy status of offensive playmakers in Cleveland. Amari Cooper was recently traded to the Buffalo Bills, so Jerry Jeudy, Cedric Tillman, and Elijah Moore, among others, will need to take steps forward.
In Winston's limited time last week, he completed five of 11 throws for 67 yards and a touchdown to David Njoku. With the veteran QB at the helm, there is potential for increased production throughout the offense, especially in the matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
The Ravens have allowed the third-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. If you need a solid QB2 option or are struggling for a quarterback play, Winston is a sneaky choice for Week 8.
