Jameis Winston is entering his fourth season with the New Orleans Saints. He initially joined the team in 2020 as the backup quarterback to Drew Brees. He started seven games for the team in 2021 and went 5-2.
Winston began last season as the starting quarterback but suffered an injury in Week 1. He played through it for two games before finally succumbing. Turns out, he had four fractures in his back. He played through those fractures for two games.
But even after he returned to the active roster, Andy Dalton remained the team’s starter.

The immediate aftermath of Aaron Rodgers pursuing a trade and Damian Lillard requesting a move of his own were as far from similar as one could imagine. Lillard had put off a potential trade request for years, attempting to stay loyal to the Trail Blazers in a tough stretch where the team was half rebuilding and half trying to put their star guard in a position to win a title.
As for Rodgers, the darkness retreat and drawn-out delay in his decision this past offseason were surely enough to send Packers fans into a frenzy of frustration.

Akshay Bhatia won the Barracuda Championship on the PGA Tour, but that doesn’t mean he is in the FedEx Cup playoffs like many initially thought.
Akshay Bhatia thought he was heading to the FedEx Cup playoffs.
After winning the Barracuda Championship Sunday, the 21-year-old believed he had done enough, but it seems there is a lot of work left to do.
Bhatia spoke on Sirius XM PGA Tour radio about the whole situation.
“My agent told me a couple hours after the [Barracuda] trophy presentation,” Bhatia said.
Sean Payton is a Super Bowl–winning coach and, as of last year, also something of a TV analyst. But now we can confirm that he, too, is a performer.
This is true of a lot of people in leadership positions. For the portions of George Patton IV’s biography I remained awake for on Audible, it was said he enjoyed the costume of a military man, of creating and donning a persona.
I won’t give Payton that much credit, though I do think the intent behind his burial of former Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett on Thursday was obvious.
Thursday night ESPN will test an all-female SportsCenter at 11 pm. Women will make up the entire on-air and behind-the-scenes staff.
The network says the test is an opportunity to spotlight women’s sports and focus less on male sports, like the NFL and college football.
This will definitely solve @espn’s collapsing business. pic.twitter.com/psYA09QQ6y

Just what sports fans clamor for during the start of NFL training camps: coverage of women’s sports.
OutKick asked ESPN which women would host the all-female edition of SportsCenter.
The United States Women’s National Team used a second-half goal against the Netherlands on Wednesday to earn a 1–1 tie and remain in control of its 2023 World Cup destiny heading into Tuesday’s group-play finale against Portugal.
One very familiar name that didn’t see any playing time against the Netherlands was Megan Rapinoe, who has been the face of the USWNT for over a decade. The legendary 38-year-old forward is retiring this year and her role on this current team has been completely different than it has been in the past.
Why? There are a few reasons.
Whenever Joey Votto eventually retires, he doesn’t have to worry about his future. No, Votto won’t be like other former players traveling from small cities to small cities signing autographs at $75 a baseball. Rather, Votto should feel very content knowing that he 100% can have a career in the WWE.
On Wednesday, the 6x All-Star Cincinnati Reds first baseman went absolutely off on Chris ‘Mad Dog’ Russo in a promo that even The Rock would be jealous of. Seriously, if you just played the audio without knowing who it was – it could be something that Stone Cold Steve Austin said.

While we’re still nine weeks out from the start of the 2023 Ryder Cup in Italy, we’re fast approaching the BMW Championship, which is the cutoff for American hopefuls to accumulate qualifying points and secure an automatic spot inside the Top Six.
Zach Johnson will make his six captain’s picks for the U.S. Ryder Cup team shortly after the Tour Championship concludes on August 27. Plenty of movement in the standings will happen between now and then, but assistant captain Fred Couples has revealed three players outside of today’s Top Six in the standings.
Couples, one of the many U.S.
The 2022 Broncos season was an unmitigated disaster, with first-year head coach Nathaniel Hackett lasting just 15 games before he was fired with a 4–11 record. The football world had a lot of jokes at Hackett’s expense, though it could be argued that nobody went as hard on Hackett as new Denver coach Sean Payton just did.
In a recent interview with USA TODAY’s Jarrett Bell, Payton ripped all aspects of the Broncos’ season, saying of his approach to this year, “we’re doing the opposite” of “everything” Denver did in 2022.
Golf is hard. It’s even harder when your tee shot ends up right behind a tree. But, as the PGA Tour slogan reads: “These guys are good.” Nick Hardy found himself in that terrible spot at the 3M Open, right behind a giant tree.
He had the option to pitch the ball out of trouble and try to save par. But Nick Hardy isn’t out at TPC Twin Lakes to play it safe.
Instead, Hardy decided to risk one of his irons to try and make a “hero” shot. And what a hero he is.
Hardy started his day on the back nine. Therefore, his final hole of the day was the par-4 ninth hole.
