The Cleveland Browns signed quarterback Jameis Winston during the offseason, shoring up one of the team’s biggest needs with a veteran Pro Bowl quarterback looking for an opportunity with a new team.
Since arriving in Cleveland, fans have realized the softer and sillier side of Winston as the quarterback has opened up multiple times in front of a microphone.
It’s that outgoing, loveable personality that will make Winston a perfect fit for the new role he’s assuming this year off the field.
The BIGPLAY Cleveland Show shared a video of the news on X – the platform formerly known as Twitter – as Winston will be a part of the podcast’s regular cast during the NFL regular season.
“Jameis Winston will join the show before every Browns home game for his own, unique segment,” the social media post explained.
The biggest sports show in Cleveland just got bigger.

The video clip shows Winston’s first segment on the show as the backup quarterback introduced himself to the audience.
“When I first got to Cleveland, they asked me, ‘Jameis, what are you here for,'” Winston said, adding, “I’m here to make big plays, so it just happened to correlate that you guys are here with (BIGPLAY).”
Analyst Gabriella Kreuz shared photographs of herself with Winston, calling him a “coworker” for the next four months.
A very Winston welcome🤪
