NFL-National Football League roundup

Feb 20 (The Sports Xchange) - Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston insisted on Friday there was no issue with his right shoulder despite a report that he underwent a medical test at the Scouting Combine to determine the source of weakness in his throwing shoulder. Winston did not miss a game in two seasons at Florida State, where he won the Heisman Trophy in 2013 and did not lose a game until the College Football Playoff semifinals in the Rose Bowl. He has been working with noted quarterback guru George Whitfield Jr. in preparing for the NFL draft, where he is projected as the possible No. 1 overall pick. "Never had any issues. Never had any surgeries," Whitfield said Friday. "I don't know what part they are looking at. I'm sure they are just making observations. "They test these guys like astronauts." Winston said he underwent an MRI on Thursday and intends to throw during drills on Saturday. "I have the same shoulder I've had the past two years at Florida State," Winston said. - - - Georgia running back Todd Gurley, projected as a first-round pick, plans to wait for the official medical re-check in April to allow teams to fully examine his left knee. He tore the anterior cruciate ligament on Nov. 15, in his first game back from a suspension handed down Oct. 9 for receiving payment for his autograph. "The timetable is six to nine months. I got hurt in November, so I'm not really giving (a) timetable," said Gurley. "I'm just trying to get back safe, but as quick as possible." - - - The San Diego Chargers deceived their fans and the city by working on a stadium plan in the Los Angeles area with the Oakland Raiders, San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer said Friday. "The Chargers weren't being up front with San Diegans, they weren't being up front with their fans... That's not how you get things done," said Faulconer, who has been working with the team on a possible stadium plan in San Diego. "We deserve an honest dialogue." The Chargers and Raiders announced in a joint statement Thursday night that they are teaming up to propose a shared stadium in Carson, California, near Los Angeles. - - - The Green Bay Packers released linebacker Brad Jones. Jones, a seventh-round draft pick in 2009, started 36 games and played in 76 in six seasons with Green Bay. In 2014, he played in 13 games, recording 18 tackles. - - - St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher named Chris Weinke as the team's quarterbacks coach on Friday. Weinke, a former Heisman Trophy winner who led Florida State to its second national championship and first undefeated season in 1999, joins the Rams after serving as director of the IMG Academy football program in Bradenton, Florida.
