Easop Winston Jr. Catches TD Pass In Loss
8 months agoSeattle Seahawks wide receiver Easop Winston Jr. caught three of his four targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason loss to the Tennessee Titans. The score was an absolute beauty. Barely a step ahead of cornerback Tre Avery, Winston looked over his shoulder as he crossed the goal line in time to snag a 23-yard arcing pass from Sam Howell for the touchdown. Winston also had a 15-yard reception with eight seconds left in the first half, advancing a drive that resulted in a field goal before the break. Winston is playing for a roster spot and, assuming he does make the cut, would be unlikely to challenge DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, or Jaxon Smith-Njigba for targets.

Easop Winston Jr. Leads Seahawks Receivers With 74 Yards
2 years agoSeattle Seahawks wide receiver Easop Winston Jr. reeled in catches of 30 and 33 yards in Saturday's loss to the Green Bay Packers. Both receptions, along with an 11-yard grab, came during the Seahawks' touchdown drive in the fourth quarter. He finished Saturday’s loss with three catches for 74 yards. Winston missed last week's game against the Cowboys but he still saw nine targets in the Seahawks' other two preseason games, enough to tie Jake Bobo for the team lead. The practice squad veteran's big game may have improved his odds of making the final roster, but he can be ignored for fantasy purposes.

Easop Winston Jr. Waived By The Seahawks
2 years agoAccording to NFL Media's Tom Pelissero, the Seahawks released wide receiver Easop Winston Jr. on Saturday. The 26-year-old has bounced around the league since going undrafted in 2020. However, he's appeared in only three games during his career, amassing just one catch for five yards. He was also utilized as a punt returner. There's a chance Winston may earn a spot on a practice squad for another team. But no matter his future, he's not expected to see any interest from fantasy participants.

Browns Claim Easop Winston Jr. Off Waivers
3 years agoThe Cleveland Browns have claimed wide receiver Easop Winston Jr. off waivers from the New Orleans Saints. The 25-year-old was reportedly having a good camp with the Saints. Despite that, the team has decided to move on from the former Washington State Huskies wideout. The Browns are in need of another receiver with Jakeem Grant Sr. (Achilles) done for the season. Possibly, Winston makes the team as a special teams player. It's unlikely Winston gets significant snaps on offense unless multiple injuries happen. He can be ignored in fantasy formats right now.
