Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston remains unsigned weeks into free agency. The much-maligned quarterback, who threw for over 5,000 yards last season but also had 30 interceptions, was replaced by six-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady this offseason.
While Winston appears to have nothing but respect for the G.O.A.T., he’d still like to find a new team to call his own, even if it is just as a backup (for now). Perhaps that’s why Winston posted the below workout video online, hoping to inspire confidence in teams interested in his services.

However, it seems to have had the opposite effect, evident by this tweet from David Carr, the NFL Network analyst and brother of Raiders QB Derek Carr.
Stop paying your friends to train you.

Stop. Get some help. I’ve been in a lot of collapsing pockets and never once did I have defenders just flying at my head. 😂 https://t.co/rfZ1XqLbr2
Keep at it Jameis. We’re rooting for you.
