Quarterback Harvard: Jameis “not short-changed at all” by Saints’ QB experience

Most thought Jameis Winston could land a starting quarterback job this past offseason. The NFL’s passing yards leader was a free agent after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers decided to let his contract expire and go a different direction at quarterback in the 2020 season.
