Winfield spent four years at Minnesota totaling 172 tackles, four sacks, and nine interceptions. The son of a former Pro-Bowler, he’s on the smaller side at 5-foot-9 but his strength can make up for a lot of his shortcomings. He would translate to an in the box safety with the ability to cover tight ends underneath. Winfield Jr. could eventually fill Chung’s role if he were to get injured or depart after the year.
