Donovan Winters III (born January 1, 1900) is an American football runningback for the Portland Pythons of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL).

Early years

Donovan Winters was born in Toccoa, Georgia to Donovan Jr. and Martha Winters, and was raised there until the age of 13, when the family relocated to Santa Ana, California so Donovan could attend Mater Dei High School. Donny was a multi-sport athlete from an early age. He grew up playing Quarterback and Safety on the football field, as well as playing Attack and Midfield on the lacrosse team. He was known for his unlimited staminia, which he credits to running up and down Mt. Curahee, tracing the steps of his great-great grandfather, Richard Winters, of "Band of Brothers" fame. This stamina served as a foundation to his outstanding performance in both sports, however he decided to specalize in football, as he felt that his professional prospects were better. After being recruited by most major college football programs as a Quarterback, he committed to play college ball for Arizona State University.

College career

Donovan did not make an instant impact upon the Arizona State University football program, as he redshirted his freshman year. His redshirt freshman year, he made the playing roster, however he was third string on the depth chart and did not see the field. Donny credits these two years for much of his later success, as these were the first two years in his life that football had been his priority. It was during his redshirt yeah that he met his best friend, Sherwin Blue Jr., who was on a medical redshirt for an ankle injury of dubious severity. In Donovan's redshirt sophomore year, He was the backup QB, however a late season injury to the starter allowed Donovan to start the last three games of the season. Donovan used this momentum to earn the starting job for his redshirt junior year. Donovan and Arizona State had a fantastic season, finishing 13-1 with a Rose Bowl Victory. Donovan returned for his senior year despite much of the Rose Bowl winning team, including Sherwin Blue, declaring for the draft or graduating. ASU did not quite live up to expectations, finishing 10-3.

Profesional career

Season 38

Donovan Winters was drafted in the second round of the DSFL Draft by the Portland Pythons. He had an unremarkable season on what ended up being a fairly disappointing team, in which they finished 6-8, good for last in the conference. He threw for 2865 yards and completed nearly 58% of his passes, with a rather pedestrian 17 touchdowns to 14 interceptions. Donovan had a quiet start to the season, but once the Pythons acquired undrafted rookie WR Plant Based from the waiver wire, Donovan and the Pythons showed what they were capable of, finishing the last five games of the season with a 4-1 record, with the only loss being a close one point game to the Tijuana Luchadores. The high point of Donovan's season came during this stretch, he led the Pythons to a 48-7 win over the London Royals. He threw for 3 TDs and 274 yards on 65% completion. Unfortunately this late season run was not enough for the Pythons to make the Playoffs.

Season 39

Donovan started the season strong, throwing for 300 yards and two TDs against the Minnesota Gray Ducks. He followed up that performance with another two TDs in a loss against the Kansas City Coyotes.
