To Jameis Winston's father, his son is literally the face of the Buccaneers franchise.
Antonor Winston was seen sporting a shirt of his son's face as the mascot for Tampa Bay's team logo and it seems it was a bit of a good luck charm. Jameis picked up his first NFL win, a 26-19 defeat of the Saints Sunday in New Orleans. The 2013 Heisman Trophy winner also bounced back from a rough debut and flourished in the outing.

If you're thinking, "Damn, that's awesome, where do I get myself one of those awesome shirts with Famous Jameis on the front," Cubby Tees has got you covered as they came up with the design and are selling them for $21.95 in four different colors.
"As he is the new face of the franchise, we envisioned him as exactly that, creating a new look inspired by the creamsicle days of swashbuckling Bucco Bruce," Cubby Tees wrote on its website describing the shirt, "with a dashing Jameis Winston winking at us from beneath his buckin' hat. Show your love for the new star and the daring ambition of the club with this fun new shirt."

After completing just 48% of his passes and throwing two picks in his NFL debut against Marcus Mariota and the Titans in a 42-14 loss in Week 1, the 2015 No. 2 overall pick settled down in Week 2.
Bucco Bruce's replacement was 14 of 21 for 207 yards, a touchdown and no picks and also ran for a score in the victory over the Saints.
Winston and the Bucs visit Houston in Week 3, but it's almost guaranteed that Raymond James Stadium will be packed to the heavens with "Swashbuckling Jameis" T-shirts when the team returns home to host Carolina in Week 4.
