Rattler is the best of a bad situation, but a few insiders wonder if the team should reunite with New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston.</p><p>Winston, who signed with the Giants in free agency, was recently demoted to third-string after the team confirmed that rookie Jaxson Dart would back up Russell Wilson in Week 1. The situation is unfortunate and “unfair” to Winston, who <a href="https://x.com/JosinaAnderson/status/1963393363811684593" rel="noopener">should ask for a trade</a> or request his release to rejoin the Saints, according to NFL insiders Josina Anderson and Clarence Hill.</p><p>“Let’s be honest, Jameis should be the starting quarterback of New Orleans,” Hill said on ‘The Exhibit’ podcast. “He embraced that city; that city loves him. They have no quarterback. He should be the starting quarterback of New Orleans.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Should <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Giants?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Giants</a> QB Jameis Winston ask for a trade?</p><p>Clarence: “Jameis Winston should be the starting QB in New Orleans.”</p><p>Pat: “…I don’t think the Giants honestly trust Jameis Winston as a player, bc they haven’t shown trust in him on the field…”</p><p>LINK: <a href="https://t.co/MiHbQlN7OB">https://t.co/MiHbQlN7OB</a> <a href="https://t.co/pbznLsLM2W">pic.twitter.com/pbznLsLM2W</a></p><p>— JosinaAnderson (@JosinaAnderson) <a href="https://twitter.com/JosinaAnderson/status/1963393363811684593?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 4, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Anderson and Hill were joined by Giants insider Pat Leonard, who agreed that Winston should find a new team. Leonard added that Winston never had a “fair” shot at competing with Dart due to his lack of opportunities throughout training camp and the preseason.</p><p>Winston began the 2024 season in a similar situation with the Cleveland Browns. He opened the year as the fourth-string quarterback and on their practice squad, but eventually got an opportunity due to a plethora of injuries and became one of the biggest stories of the year.</p><h2><b>Giants, Saints’ differing quarterback situations</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/ellen-Moore-on-August-23-2025.jpg"><figcaption>Stephen Lew-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/giants-news-brian-daboll-statement-russell-wilson-vs-jaxson-dart">Giants are content riding with Russell Wilson</a> for the 2025 season before turning the keys over to Dart in 2026. Some believe that Dart will eventually supplant Wilson at some point in the 2025 season. Regardless, the team’s plans notably exclude Winston, who, at one point, seemed like he could be its Week 1 starter.</p><p>As New York deals with an embarrassment of riches, the Saints are in the exact opposite situation. New Orleans is beginning the year with arguably the worst quarterback situation in the league, and it does not have any definitive answers.</p><p>On paper, the Saints appear to be taking the same approach as the Giants. First-year head coach Kellen Moore named Rattler as his starter over rookie Tyler Shough, who seems to be the team’s future. However, neither Rattler nor Shough comes even close to comparing to either Wilson or Dart.</p><p>Carr’s retirement forced the Saints into what appears to be an obvious rebuild year. Despite drafting Shough in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, they are already one of the favorites to take another quarterback in the first round in 2026.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

As his alma mater, Florida State Seminoles, shocked No. 8 Alabama in a 31-17 upset, the veteran QB took to X, formerly Twitter, <a href="https://x.com/Jaboowins/status/1961958852330725491" rel="noopener">to share his perfect three-word reaction</a>.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">EAT THEM W’s! <a href="https://twitter.com/FSUFootball?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FSUFootball</a> <a href="https://t.co/wH2LKjtmXz">https://t.co/wH2LKjtmXz</a></p><p>— Jameis Winston (@Jaboowins) <a href="https://twitter.com/Jaboowins/status/1961958852330725491?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 31, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Winston’s post quickly spread among fans, linking his famous celebration to one of the biggest college football wins of the young season. The Seminoles’ upset was also powered by new offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn and quaterback Thomas Castellanos, and was probably one of the most memorable programs in years, with Winston’s viral celebration added extra spice for the Seminole Nation.</p><p>Meanwhile, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/3-sneaky-new-york-giants-trade-candidates-entering-2025-training-camp">the Giants are still sorting out the roster</a> all of their decisions ahead of Week 1. With Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen entering a make-or-break season, speculation continues around possible moves. Sneaky trade candidates could also emerge from New York’s training camp, and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/giants-news-jameis-winston-agrees-8-million-contract">Winston himself, despite signing a two-year, $8 million deal</a>, is not completely safe given the team’s crowded quarterback room.</p><p>Beyond his on-field role, Winston continues to be one of the most entertaining voices in football. From viral celebrations to heartfelt shotouts to his alma mater, the veteran QB has built a reputation for blending passion with personality. Giants fans may still be debating his spot in the quarterback rotation, but there’s no question that Winston’s charisma and leadership bring a unique energy to every locker room he joins. The Giants will return to action on Sept. 7 against the Commanders in the NFL season opener.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Miguel is also a proud Utah Jazz believer, a passionate Manchester United and Real Madrid supporter, and loyal Novak Djokovic fan.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NCAA Football</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>Former Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher recently pulled back the curtain on what it was like to coach Jameis Winston, revealing details that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/florida-state-football-news-honor-jameis-winston-jersey-retirement-north-alabama">highlight the quarterback’s legendary work ethic</a>, unwavering confidence, and rare humility during his college years.</p><p><a href="https://www.on3.com/college/florida-state-seminoles/news/jimbo-fisher-describes-what-coaching-jameis-winston-in-college-was-like/" rel="noopener">Speaking on the Trials to Triumph podcast</a>, Fisher recalled being struck by Winston’s preparation habits even as a young player. “I don’t know if I’ve ever been around anybody who prepared like Jameis at a young age,” Fisher said. “Jameis never lost confidence. And it wasn’t arrogance, it was pure confidence in himself. Even if he made a mistake, he knew he could do something about it, and knew how to keep it in perspective.”</p><p>According to Fisher, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/giants-news-jameis-winston-makes-heisman-trophy-flex-win-bills">Winston’s dedication extended far beyond normal practice hours</a>. After team sessions ended, he would head to the film room to review practice tape. Many nights, he stayed until 10 or 11 p.m., breaking down plays and studying tendencies. “He’d be downstairs in the same room. He’d never leave the building,” Fisher said. That relentless approach, Fisher added, was one of the biggest factors behind Winston’s rapid rise to national stardom.</p><p>The results spoke for themselves. In just two seasons as Florida State’s starting quarterback, Winston threw for 7,964 yards and 65 touchdowns against 28 interceptions, completing 66 percent of his passes. He compiled a remarkable 26–1 record as a starter, leading the Seminoles to the 2013 national championship and an appearance in the inaugural College Football Playoff in 2014.</p><p>His breakout 2013 campaign was one for the history books. Winston became the youngest player ever to win the Heisman Trophy at 19 years and 342 days old, a record later edged out by Lamar Jackson by only five days. That year, Winston also collected the Davey O’Brien Award, Walter Camp Award, Manning Award, and consensus All-America honors.</p><p>Yet for all of his statistical dominance and accolades, Fisher says Winston never acted like a superstar in Florida State. “He knew every janitor in the building. He knew every lady who worked in the building. He knew everybody who was making lunch and dinner. He knew every walk-on on the team,” Fisher said. “He knew everybody, and he treated everybody the same. He never put himself above things… He never saw himself as a superstar, as crazy as that sounds. He knew he was good, but he just liked being one of the guys.”</p><p>That grounded nature carried over into Winston’s professional career. Now 31 years old, he has become one of the most beloved figures in football, not just for his arm talent, but for his infectious personality and endless optimism. Fans have embraced his genuine enthusiasm, his knack for uplifting teammates, and his willingness to celebrate others’ successes as much as his own.</p><p>This offseason, Winston signed with the New York Giants after spending the previous year with the Cleveland Browns. Whether starting under center or backing up, Winston’s energy and leadership remain constants. Fisher believes those traits are rooted in the same qualities he saw a decade ago in Tallahassee, a tireless competitor with an unshakable belief in himself and a deep respect for everyone around him.</p><p>For Fisher, the memories go beyond the highlight reels and championship celebrations. They include quiet nights in the film room, casual conversations with cafeteria staff, and the example Winston set for his teammates. And for anyone who watched him lead Florida State to the top of the college football world, there’s little doubt that still holds true today.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

When reflecting on the bizarre situation, the New York Giants quarterback revealed that he felt compelled to confess to the robbery to save his Florida State career.</p><p>Winston, who was then preparing for his sophomore season with the Seminoles, was accused of stealing roughly $32 worth of crab legs from a local Publix supermarket. He initially denied committing a crime, calling it a miscommunication. With the incident now firmly in the past, Winston <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNaAzD9tW68&amp;t=1287s" rel="noopener">shed new light on the sequence of events</a>, claiming that Florida State officials urged him to confess to avoid a suspension from the football team.</p><p>“It was a whole like miscommunication of how it happened,” Winston said on ‘The Pivot Podcast.’ “And I had to do, in terms of like talking to compliance people at Florida State, so I would not get suspended. And I would not lose any time at Florida State. So that is why I had to confess up for saying that I did something that I did not do. And that is the most simplest terms that I could put you.”</p><p>Winston initially claimed that a Publix employee gave him the legs and believed that he could have them for free. Most people believed Winston at the time, thinking that a student-athlete on a full-ride scholarship would not need to steal $32 of food at a grocery store.</p><p>Winston’s punishment for the crime was 20 hours of community service. Since he was then on Florida State’s baseball team, he was not allowed to partake in team activities until he completed his sentence.</p><h2><b>Jameis Winston’s place on Giants’ quarterback depth chart</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Giants-QB-Jameis-Winston-in-action-at-training-camp.jpg"><figcaption>Yannick Peterhans / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Now preparing for his 11th NFL season, Winston certainly no longer needs to steal crab legs. The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/giants-news-jameis-winston-agrees-8-million-contract">31-year-old inked a two-year, $8 million deal with the Giants</a> in the 2025 offseason to make him the third wheel of an interesting quarterback room.</p><p>With Russell Wilson preparing to take over and Jaxson Dart slowly developing as the team’s future, Winston is often overlooked on the roster. Yet, coming off his best season since his last year with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2019, Winston will likely be Wilson’s backup for the 2025 season. New York is bullish on Dart’s potential, but wants the rookie to take a Patrick Mahomes-like redshirt season before hitting the ground running in 2026.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He recently shared his thoughts on <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/florida-state-football-news-thomas-castellanos-hits-alabama-with-warning">the strong comments</a> that Florida State QB Thomas Castellanos made about Alabama football.</p><p>The Boston College transfer is incredibly stoked for the team’s season-opening meeting versus Bama, and he has not been shy about expressing his opinions. Castellanos said the Crimson Tide do not have legendary head coach Nick Saban to save them, and he does not think the defense will be able to stop him. Winston has a connection to both programs.</p><p>The former No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick led the Seminoles to a national championship during the 2013-14 season. He was also born and raised in Alabama, residing roughly 40 minutes away from Tuscaloosa. He understands the passion that both fan bases have and is therefore in a unique position to weigh in on Castellanos’ trash talk.</p><p>Winston knows that Florida State’s new starting signal-caller will ultimately have to back up his comments on the field, but he <a href="https://www.wvua23.com/sports/jameis-winston-weighs-in-on-castellanos-comment/article_fc97fc8a-62bd-48b2-80e6-69d694c96c2a.html" rel="noopener">respects the fierce mentality</a> that Castellanos has going into this important game and campaign.</p><p>“Actions speak louder than words,” the Heisman Trophy winner told WVUA 23 while hosting a youth football camp in his old stomping grounds, Hueytown High School, less than a week before Giants’ training camp began.</p><p>“But what do you expect? Do you not want him to have that confidence? I want him to have that confidence. He should have that confidence. I know Alabama, I know everybody loves Alabama, especially being from this state, so I’m excited to see that matchup.”</p><h2><b>Florida State’s QB is ready to compete in his new home</b></h2><p>Thomas Castellanos recently clarified his remarks, claiming that he holds no ill-will for the Crimson Tide roster. He <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/florida-state-football-news-thomas-castellanos-refuses-to-back-down-from-alabama-trash-talk">is standing behind his words</a>, however, motivated to spur Florida State to a huge victory in Tallahassee on Aug. 30. Furthermore, the 21-year-old insists that he just wanted to light a fire under the Seminoles, who endured one of their worst seasons in program history in 2024.</p><p>Castellanos played a part in that anguish, as he and Boston College earned a rather dominant 28-13 road win over Mike Norvell’s squad last September. Florida State finished the year with a humiliating 2-10 record, a jarring decline following a magnificent 13-1 showing in 2023. The campaign did not end so well for Castellanos, either.</p><p>The dual-threat quarterback, who rushed for 1,113 yards as a sophomore, suffered a lower-body injury and proceeded to struggle. Eagles head coach <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ncaa-football/boston-college-football-news-bill-obrien-honest-admission-after-making-qb-move">Bill O’Brien benched him</a> in November, paving the way for an eventual split. Castellanos took exception to how the whole situation unfolded and now joins Florida State football with a huge chip on his shoulder.</p><p>After making overall strides as a passer — completed 61.5 percent of his throws for 1,366 yards and 18 touchdowns in eight games — Castellanos is eager to help the Seminoles bounce back and re-establish themselves as a force in the ACC. Prevailing over Alabama would certainly aid that cause. It would also draw more eyeballs to No. 1.</p><h2><b>Can Thomas Castellanos draw inspiration from Seminoles great Jameis Winston?</b></h2><p>Castellanos and all modern Florida State QBs are chasing the standard that Winston set more than a decade ago. Aside from the massive impact his statistical and team achievements had on the school and community, his big personality continues to resonate with young players and fans today.</p><p>The 31-year-old has not enjoyed the NFL career he sought out to, but he still carries a steady presence in the league. Winston is particularly valuable as a leader, invigorating a locker room with infectious energy and intensity. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-giants/giants-news-jameis-winston-4-word-reaction-inking-2-year-deal-new-york">The Giants signed him</a> to a two-year, $8 million contract this offseason, recognizing the experience and zeal he can inject into a franchise that just lost a record-14 games.</p><p>If Thomas Castellanos can find a balance between self-assurance and competent play, much like Jameis Winston has, then the Florida State roller coaster may be on the upswing in 2025.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Liberty remain undefeated at 9-0, and it doesn’t look like they’ll be stopped anytime soon. Many people are coming out to watch the reigning champs, one that includes Jameis Winston, who is now a part of the New York family since signing with the Giants.</p><p>After the Liberty game, the WNBA did an interview with Winston, and he shared why he <a href="https://x.com/wnba/status/1932636226726875391?s=46&amp;t=dX0WTNrI0miHAqJBzVQESQ">came out to support</a> the team.</p><p>“I came out here to show the world that Jaylyn Sherrod is the baddest,” Winston said. “She’s the greatest. And the WNBA is the hottest thing in the world right now. Our women, no one works harder than them, no one puts on a show like them. And I had to come support the 2024 WNBA Champions.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">It’s an NY link up 💫 <a href="https://twitter.com/Giants?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Giants</a> QB Jameis Winston had to shout out the Liberty and show love to Jaylyn Sherrod following their win over the Sky!</p><p>WNBA Commissioner’s Cup presented by <a href="https://twitter.com/coinbase?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coinbase</a> <a href="https://t.co/7Nw25J3YIs">pic.twitter.com/7Nw25J3YIs</a></p><p>— WNBA (@WNBA) <a href="https://twitter.com/WNBA/status/1932636226726875391?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 11, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Winston has never been shy to show love to anybody, and he’s good at giving a motivational speech whenever he can. The Liberty probably don’t need any motivation right now because they’re rolling and are one of the best teams in the league.</p><h2><b>Liberty continue to dominate league </b></h2><p>Even without Jonquel Jones, the Liberty are still crushing through their opponents, as their latest win was against the Sky. Breanna Stewart finished the game with 18 points, seven rebounds, and five assists, while Sabrina Ionescu finished with 23 points, seven assists, two blocks, and four steals. With that stat line, she became the first player in WNBA history to do that, and she’s been having a strong start to the season.</p><p>The Liberty have been clicking on both sides of the ball, and they’re at the top of the league in both offensive and defensive rating. There’s no doubt that as of now they’re the favorites to make it back to the Finals, but they have some competition with the Minnesota Lynx, who are also undefeated.</p><p>Stewart recently shared that there may be a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/wnba/new-york-liberty/libertys-breanna-stewart-speaks-up-about-9-0-lynx">secret competition brewing between the Liberty and Lynx</a>.</p><p>“It’s human nature just wondering who’s kinda at the top of the standings,” Stewart said.</p><p>It will be interesting to see where both teams are when they finally meet each other, and it will set up for a great matchup. It also wouldn’t be shocking if both of these teams saw each other in the Finals again for a rematch, as the Liberty took home the championship last season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

But <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-orleans-saints/saints-news-derek-carr-reason-turning-down-30-million">Derek Carr’s surprising retirement decision</a> removes a safety net for the new HC/QB duo. Although the four-time Pro Bowler was unlikely to suit up next season due to significant shoulder injuries, his veteran presence could have proven valuable in this transition phase.</p><p>That is not to knock Carr, however. After all, the man himself admitted he did not want to collect a paycheck while recovering on the sidelines. But the beat goes on. The Saints move forward with a signal-caller group that includes Shough, second-year talent Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener. They could use some more NFL experience, though.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-orleans-saints/ranking-10-greatest-new-orleans-saints-of-all-time">Franchise great Cameron Jordan</a> has a name in mind, and it is <a href="https://x.com/heykayadams/status/1932120395056029942" rel="noopener">someone The Big Easy knows well</a>. “Im goin’ all in, Jameis as a veteran QB .. come on over,” the 2017 First-Team All-Pro, two-time Second-Team All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowl selection told Kay Adams on the “Up &amp; Adams Show.” It will be interesting how that soundbite goes over in New Orleans, and in the Meadowlands.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">"Im goin' all in, Jameis as a veteran QB .. come on over."</p><p>15 year NFL vet <a href="https://twitter.com/camjordan94?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@camjordan94</a> on trading for <a href="https://twitter.com/Jaboowins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Jaboowins</a>. </p><p> <a href="https://t.co/pCFPNYCZWv">pic.twitter.com/pCFPNYCZWv</a></p><p>— Kay Adams (@heykayadams) <a href="https://twitter.com/heykayadams/status/1932120395056029942?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 9, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><h2><b>Would the Saints pursue a reunion?</b></h2><p>Jordan also mentioned Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco as a possibility, showing that he is not afraid to target players on other teams. He knows the New York Giants already have Super Bowl 48 champion Russell Wilson and rookie Jaxson Dart, leaving Winston’s status up in the air. Of course, the 35-year-old is fully aware that he only has so much influence. Saints general manager Mickey Loomis has to be willing to make a call, and the Giants need to be open to a potential deal.</p><p>If the stars were to align, however, it is obvious Jordan would go wild. He has gushed over Winston in the past, praising the former No. 1 overall pick for the energy he infused into the team when they shared a locker room for four seasons (2020-23). Although the organization may not want to hear one of its leaders endorse another QB when it is trying to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-orleans-saints/rising-new-orleans-saints-rookie-turning-heads-2025-otas">mold Tyler Shough</a>, Winston can add a vital morale boost and maybe help the rookie find his way.</p><p>Besides, this squad is in no position to turn down good vibes. The 2015 Pro Bowler can be an asset in a backup role. Whether it is Jameis Winston or someone else, the front office would be wise to consider acquiring a veteran. In any case, Cameron Jordan will probably get a text or two after sharing his feelings on the matter.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
