here ya go, 2019 he will be gone...

The Bucs have benched Jameis Winston and will move forward with Ryan Fitzpatrick as their starting quarterback.
It's a seismic move for a Bucs organization that owes Winston no guaranteed money beyond 2018. His 2019 team option is guaranteed for injury only. That creates a huge incentive to keep him on the bench for the remainder of the season. For his part, embattled coach Dirk Koetter insisted he's taking the situation one week at a time. "We’re just looking at this week," Koetter claimed. Fitzpatrick is no one's idea of a long-term answer at quarterback, but he has unquestionably been better than Winston in OC Todd Monken's air raid attack. There's a non-zero percent chance Winston has played his final Bucs snap.
