Didn't he sign the paperwork? He had to know the bottom line.

I am not a Winston fan in the least. He's just not very bright.

There's no telling why Winston fired his agent. Players fire agents all the time. It's pretty common. I wouldn't doubt that they had differences over the contract. It sounds to me from everything that Winston has done and said that he really wanted to be with the Saints. He was willing to take less to be here. Joel Segal would have wanted as much as possible to get his cut. Segal was probably upset that Jameis settled for as little as he did and they probably had a "philosophical difference" that couldn't be mended.

Yes, he signed it. He knew the bottom line. He also knew what spending a year behind Brees got Bridgewater ... a $60 million deal.

If Brees goes down we'll see if he plays like 5-0 Bridgewater played. That's what got Bridgewater the coin, not just sitting behind Brees. If Brees didn't go down I have a had time believing he gets paid what he got, and I like Bridgewater.
