Jameis Winston Embraces The Villain Role In Latest Instagram Post
Say what you want about Jameis Winston, but he’s one of the more exciting NFL players to follow on Insta- gram.
From belting out the ABCs with his son to offering tips on parenting, the soon- to-be free agent QB certainly seems to have his hands full this offseason. But let’s not forget that Winston is also a professional, and regardless of where he ends up once the free agency dust settles, he’ll be competing to play in 2020. Winston knows better than anyone the criticism that’s been swirling around him in Tampa Bay the last few years, and after a season in which he threw 30 interceptions, the Bucs might finally be ready to move on.
To his credit, Winston seems to know the deck may

be stacked against him right now with the Bucs, which might be why he’s embracing the role of the villain in his
latest Instagram post, quot- ing Tom Hardy’s Bane from the 2012 film “The Dark Knight Rises.”
Can Play Until 45, Has No
Interest In Leaving Saints
Drew Brees believes he has several more seasons of good football left in him and seems to be taking a similar career path to that of Tom Brady, but there’s one signif- icant difference between the two future Hall of Famers.
While Brady is prepared to enter free agency and seems open to playing for another team, Brees has openly stated he will never leave the New Orleans Saints. He reit- erated that during an appear- ance on WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Morning Show” on

Thursday, noting that he has no interest in hearing what another team might have to offer. Brees also said he be- lieves he can play until he’s 45, which is the mark Brady has been shooting for.

Jadeveon Clowney Has Interest In Giants
Jets DL Quinnen Williams Arrested For Possession Of Weapon At Airport
Jadeveon Clowney is among the best free agents on the market this offseason, and he reportedly has the New York Giants on his wish list.
Clowney has interest in the Giants as he looks for his next team. The versatile de- fensive lineman is looking to strike it rich in free agency, and he knows the Giants will have tons of cap space and need to upgrade on that side. Their ability to pay him prob-
Tom Brady would never reveal where he is planning to play in 2020 before he felt the timing was appropriate, but the six-time Super Bowl champion may genuinely have no idea what the future holds.

QUINNEN WILLIAMS
Favorite To Be Patriots
New York Jets defensive lineman Quinnen Williams was arrested on Thursday night for illegal possession of a firearm.
Williams was trying to board a flight at LaGuardia Airport in New York when he was arrested for criminal pos- session of a weapon. He has a permit to carry in his home state of Alabama, but not New York.
The gun is reportedly a Glock 19 pistol.
Williams, 23, was the No. 3 overall pick by the Jets out of Alabama last year. He had 28 tackles and 2.5 sacks in 13 games last season. He missed some time due to an ankle in- jury.
2020 QB If Brady Leaves
If Tom Brady leaves in free agency, who would take over as the starting quarter- back of the New England Pa- triots in 2020?
That’s the question that has the NFL world befuddled at the moment. Even so, you can still make your bets on who you think it will be in Las Vegas sportsbooks.
Right now, the favorite to start in New England (if not Brady) is soon-to-be free agent Teddy Bridgewater.
