Jameis Winston on Remaining Benched After Injury: ‘It Hurts My Soul’

Saints head coach Dennis Allen has decided to stick with Andy Dalton at quarterback despite the fact that Jameis Winston is getting back to full health. When speaking with the media on Friday, Winston made it clear that he is upset over how the decision to stick with Dalton was made.

“It hurts my soul,” Winston said, via Jack Culotta Jr. “I lost my job due to injury. And the policy has always been that you don’t lose your job because of injury.”

However, although Winston made it clear that he feels he can contribute to the team, he still fully supports Dalton and the offense.
