METAIRIE, La. -- New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston rejected the revenge premise in preparing to make his first start against his former team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
But it wasn’t just a case of Winston trying to avoid bulletin board material.
One of the things that has stood out most since the Buccaneers replaced Winston with Tom Brady in March 2020 is how positive and optimistic, humble and reflective he has been instead of angry or bitter toward the organization that drafted him No. 1 overall in 2015.
