Jameis Winston to wear No. 3 jersey, not No. 5, for Bucs image

The Buccaneers chose Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston to be the man to lead them into the future, selecting him with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft on Thursday night. 

Winston was not in Chicago for the draft. Instead, he held a draft party in his hometown of Hueytown, Ala. During an interview following the selection, Winston told the NFL Network that he will be wearing No. 3 for the Buccaneers.

It's not a big deal, unless you are one of the people who jumped the gun and spent over $100 on a custom Buccaneers jersey with Winston's college number.

Whoops.
