Imagine Jameis Winston's surprise to learn that he is starting a second consecutive game in place of Dart, who remains in concussion protocol.“I just found out,” Winston said Friday afternoon, via Ed Valentine of bigblueview.
Winston, 31, said that when he entered the NFL at a young age, he had a lot of people around him who he wanted to support financially after he received a four-year, $25.25 million contract as No. 1 overall NFL draft pick in 2015.
Winston could be heard yelling “TRENCHES!” mid-huddle, riffing about meeting a teammate's mom from the sidelines to the disbelief of the lineman and launching into a pile of defensive linemen as well on sideline pep talks with insurmountable enthusiasm. At the end of the day, that was just Winston being himself.
