Matt Kemp Says Jameis Winston Could Be MLB Star, Next Great Two-Sport Athlete [VIDEO]

Los Angeles Dodgers star outfielder Matt Kemp thinks Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston could be a great two-sport athlete and a star in major league baseball.

Kemp recently told TMZ he thinks Winston has the athletic skill to be the next, great two-sport star, much in the same vein as Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders.

Kemp made his bold prediction to TMZ despite admitting he's yet to actually see Winston play baseball. The man now rumored to be dating reality TV star Khloe Kardashian, the soon-to-be ex wife of NBA vet Lamar Odom. told the website he bases his assessement on Winston's freakish athletic ability and his cannon of an arm.

Earlier this week the 19-year-old redshirt freshman led his Florida State Seminoles to a national title clinching 32-28 win over Auburn. The win capped a perfect 13-0 season for the Seminoles and again made Winston the talk of the sports world.

Coming out of high school, the Texas Rangers drafted Winston in the 15th round of the MLB draft and he is set play for the No. 5 ranked FSU baseball team this spring as an outfielder and designated hitter.
