"I lost my job due to injury and the policy has always been you don't lose your job due to injury. And that's what happened.""

Tell that to Drew Bledsoe.

It’s ok to be upset and voice that internally but Jameis comes off as a bit of a bitch here.

He was hurt but also playing like shite to start the season. It’s not like he came out and crushed his first few games and then had the job snagged from him.

Work hard, be a good teammate, and voice frustrations behind closed doors.

He’s come across as a good teammate until this came out. This is not a good look for him.

well you ungrateful idiot, you lost your job because you suck, and it was not because you were injured.

you sucked and should have lost your job long before you got injured, but you only played longer, because they didnt want to pull you out while you were injured, but you left them no other choice because you will never be a starting QB.

what a true pussy arse bitch he is being

at least he has now made sure after this BS, he wont be here next year even if DA keeps his job

enjoy the rest of your life being a fry cook at burger king winston

Dennis Allen seems like the type that he would have told Jameis the job was still his when he went down. If so, to Jameis it would look like Allen went back on his word…only for us to lose most games with Dalton anyway.

I can see why he’d be pissed if that’s the case. Not that either option is particularly good or better than the other.

If you are good enough then you don't lose your job to injury. It is what it is. I'm not a Winston hater, but people are way too defensive over him. Neither QBs are the answer.

Allen noted that he’ll sit down with Winston and the team medical staff to see if he’s ready to start games again, but the fractured vertebrae in his back are still months away from healing up. Winston isn’t actively receiving treatment from team doctors anymore, which is why he hasn’t been listed on the injury report each week, but that doesn’t mean his body is right. There just isn’t anything to be done about it now.

Maybe the Saints make a move. To be frank, it doesn’t matter who is starting at quarterback for this team given all of their issues in each of the game’s three phases: whether it’s Winston, Dalton, Taysom Hill, practice squad quarterback Jake Luton, or a time-traveling Drew Brees in his prime, they are who their record says they are. A futile defensive effort and mistake-prone special teams unit have sunk their season.

And this isn’t exactly the best week to trot out a passer with four cracked vertebrae. Los Angeles Rams superstar Aaron Donald is coming to town, and the Saints don’t expect to have any of their three injured starters along the offensive line back on the field (that being center Erik McCoy, left guard Andrus Peat, and left tackle James Hurst). Putting Winston out there without reliable protection wouldn’t do him any favors. But it’s not like he or the Saints have any better options. We’ll see if Allen ultimately makes a move here, but that seems to be the way the wind is blowing


Yet Winston admits he’s healthy enough to play.

Interesting timing with Dalton going 21-25 3TDs. Can’t argue with the coach’s call.

At least he didn’t play the race card. Not yet anyway.
