Quarterback Jameis Winston is open to a return to the Cleveland Browns and praises Northeast Ohio as he gets set for NFL free agency.
Franchise superstar Myles Garrett isn’t the only Browns player on Radio Row wondering where he’ll play next season. Winston is spending Super Bowl week signed with Fox Sports as a media member. Winston has spent the week in New Orleans entertaining fans and players alike.
Winston canvassed the Chiefs and Eagles to determine where he would play next season. The two Super Bowl teams were recruiting Winston hard. Winston was flattered by the idea, but the quarterback was adamant he wanted to start next season.
A few players suggested he play in New York with the New York Giants or stay in his adopted home of New Orleans. In an interview with Kay Adams, Winston said he wants to return to Cleveland. Winston was enamored with the city. He said Cleveland was the most beautiful place for 90 days during the fall. The quarterback famously experienced all four seasons for the first time in his life in Ohio.
I want to see the gunslinger back in Cleveland. Winston didn’t get a fair shake with the Browns. The team was more concerned with tanking once their playoff chances dipped into the single digits.
Winston battled against multiple playoff teams in his limited starts. The quarterback was still plagued by interceptions, but I think the Browns were scratching the surface with Winston. I think a second year in the system would do wonders for a Browns team that needs an explosive passing attack. Winston is the cheapest option for a Browns team desperate for a quarterback.
