per the Daily:
Winfield recorded four tackles and broke up one pass in his return to action against South Dakota State on Aug. 29. Head coach P.J. Fleck said that while he could tell Winfield was excited to get back on the field, he looked a little too eager to make the same highlight reel plays as last season.
"I thought he almost, at times, wanted to over-perform," Fleck said. "He wanted to do everyone else's jobs at times, because he's that good."
On Saturday, Winfield and the Gophers will get another chance to knock off a tough Fresno State team, this time in California. One year removed from his game-saving interception, Winfield is excited to play them again.
"Obviously, they're a great team," Winfield said, "It will just be interesting seeing how they are this year."
