Jameis Winston and The Brown are nearing a one-year contract that is anticipated to have a guaranteed base value of $4 million plus potential. This information was released on Tuesday night.
Winston’s four-year career in New Orleans, where he started as Drew Brees’ backup and eventually got opportunities to start before injuries and inconsistent play cost him the job and forced the Saints to acquire Derek Carr in 2023, comes to an end with his trade to the Browns. Following Watson, who is recovering from a season-ending shoulder injury and has had difficulty staying in the starting lineup during his first two years with the Browns, Winston will play a similar position in Cleveland.
