GREEN BAY, Wis. – When the Green Bay Packers open the 2021 NFL season at the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 12, the quarterback matchup will be Aaron Rodgers vs. Jameis Winston.
Winston has won his battle against Taysom Hill to be the Saints’ starter, according to reports.
Winston sewed up the starting job with his performance vs. Jacksonville on Monday night. Playing only three possessions, Winston was 9-of-10 passing for 123 yards with a pair of touchdowns to Marquez Callaway.
“I was just thankful,” Winston said of starting his first game since 2019.
