3rd man in 2016 Uber incident says Winston was alone with driver

New information has emerged regarding Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston and the 2016 Uber incident which will reportedly result in a three-game suspension.

Brandon Banks, a former Vanderbilt football player, was identified Friday as the third man with the Buccaneers pivot and Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Ronald Darby in March 2016 when a female Uber driver said Winston sexually abused her in the car. Banks is currently in prison after being found guilty of rape in an unrelated incident.

Banks' attorney, Mark Scruggs, told ESPN's "Outside the Lines" program, via Paula Lavigne, that his client was with Winston and Darby in a different Uber earlier in the evening, but that Winston entered the car alone with the driver, identified as "Kate."

"What happened after that," Scruggs said, "they cannot say."

Scruggs had never come forward to comment until Friday but did claim the NFL attempted to interview Banks in prison during its investigation of Winston. Banks would not comment on the incident without his lawyer present, whom the league never contacted.
