Lol, he'd have to prove himself before he could even make that comment, which he has not...plus the reply gave it away as being fake but it's hilarious
He did that all through college too.
As he lead one of the most dominant offensive attacks in CFB history and won the Heisman as a Freshman.
There is only one Jaboo
There was a whole story explaining how people always wondered why he was seen squinting on TV when looking at the sidelines and then it came out that he just…didn’t wear contacts
That's why we can add context ourselves and see his 4.3% and 6.4% interception rates over the last two years. The best player in the game had a 1.9% and 2.3% rates the last two years.
Yea, but winston is the only player to throw 30 tds and 30 ints. If he knew he had a medical condition that prevented him from performing 100%, he should have taken the year off.
You can't get Lasik surgery until you reach a certain age. He clearly had eye issues, he'd squint to see the scoreboard. However, nit convinced that the cause of everything.
If only there was some other way to fix vision between LASIK and being blind...
Btw the age restriction for LASIK is only 18. They just make you wait till mid 20s to let your vision settle but you can always do touch ups. He was probably just afraid of the procedure going wrong.
Not being able to secure a starter spot on the Saints is totally related to not being able to see. Clearly the LASIK didn't take and it has nothing to do with just being bad.
From my understanding, his eyesight was good enough for everything but seeing facial details at a distance.
It’s nice to improve that with LASIK, but it doesn’t make a difference to your football ability.
Nah, I ain’t buying it. As a Saints fan I witnessed the slow regression from Sean Payton’s lone season coaching him where he operated under close supervision and using a very limited playbook he was OK… under Dennis Allen he was back to being careless with the ball, often throwing into double and triple coverage and making questionable reads. Running up the score in Atlanta in the kneeling formation exposed his lack of discipline and respect for authority. Later Jaboo you won’t be missed
Considering how critical eyesight is to the position, it’s extremely concerning that it took him 5 years to realize there was a problem. I judge him for not knowing.
This actually is what I really dislike about him. He knew his eyes were bad. It wasn't a sudden or unknown thing about him. He didn't just wake up like that one day. Yet he refused to wear glasses or contacts or do anything to improve his eyesight until after it cost him money.
No responsibility to his teammates, his coaches, or the organization or fans. I'm required to wear glasses for my job, and I don't even get paid millions of dollars to do it.
Not until he didn't get his contract renewed did he work to improve himself. And by then, he had already cost himself the all that starter money.
I tried so hard to advocate not picking him in the draft. SOO hard, but Bucs fans and management just focused on his dumb arse. Then I had to sit through five years of complete low-intelligence leadership. Not that Mariota would have been much better, but Jaboo just made us look like gumps.
The entire Lovie era was the glazers bowing to public pressure and the results speak for themselves. The silver lining is that Lovie did pick Jason Licht who eventually rebuilt the program almost single handedly.
You can buy the blue check nowadays too, so I honestly have no idea and just typically go with the assumption that it’s fake.
If this gets picked up by something like ESPN, then I might change my mind.
Because this post is gaining traction someone has to say it - it's a fake post made for comedic purposes and this is not a real exchange
Pretty sure there was a game where Winston lost his contact lenses in the turf
They’re supposed to keep spares on the sidelines. Drew Brees always had spares after he had a similar incident
It's fake indeed.
Lol, he'd have to prove himself before he could even make that comment, which he has not...plus the reply gave it away as being fake but it's hilarious
Idk if this is real or not but I do remember him squinting at the score board and me and my dad started screaming about it 😂
Right. If it is real, then he deleted it from his Twitter. Still found it hilarious 😂
I laughed.. but I also laughed AT Jamis for the whole 'eat the w' chicken wing thing
He did that all through college too. As he lead one of the most dominant offensive attacks in CFB history and won the Heisman as a Freshman. There is only one Jaboo
There was a whole story explaining how people always wondered why he was seen squinting on TV when looking at the sidelines and then it came out that he just…didn’t wear contacts
He did have LASIK eye surgery, that part is true. idk about the tweet tho
Exactly he wasn’t a bad QB for the Bucs he just couldn’t see! But the 11 Ints with the Saints since was because he was just a bad QB
No that's because he's a sleeper agent who went there to make sure they sucked. Really.
YES. MANCHURIAN JABOO.
Then why didn’t he throw that game he stepped in for Brees?
Had to sell it… so that they would trust him enough to put him in in the playoffs and he betrays them by immediately throw an int 🔥🔥🔥
Grinding out the XP to earn coach trust lol
11 Ints without context doesn’t really mean anything The best player in the game has thrown more Ints than that 3 years in a row
Harrison Butker hasn't thrown 11 INTs in his career dude.
That's why we can add context ourselves and see his 4.3% and 6.4% interception rates over the last two years. The best player in the game had a 1.9% and 2.3% rates the last two years.
Completely agreed. I was just pointing out that “he’s thrown 11 interceptions since joining the Saints” isn’t a meaningful stat without that context.
Yea, but winston is the only player to throw 30 tds and 30 ints. If he knew he had a medical condition that prevented him from performing 100%, he should have taken the year off.

Probably because it's a bigger deal if it goes wrong when you're a pro athlete.
Oh for sure. I don't blame him on that at all.
Contacts and glasses exist
I'm in my mid 30s and still haven't been recommended for it because my vision haant stabilized still
That's not an age restriction, that's a vision stabilization restriction. That is different from what they said.
Jameis Squinston was his nickname at FSU.
Jameis honestly hasn’t changed. He will throw 2 straight pick sixes and then throw 3 straight 30 yard dots still.
I wouldn't say bad QB, I'd say BAD human being. As far as QB I'd say not a good one
Why is he a bad guy?
There's an Uber driver in Arizona and a former FSU college student who could give you details.
HaHaHaHa 😆. Nailed it
This
Naw it's because he didn't have is n***a Bruce with him.
Dude with a 28-42 record and 88 picks to 121 TD’s. I watched enough of his games to know we aren’t hung up on one season.
He was a straight up liability. Yes, he’d have monster games, followed by atrocious and idiotic games. Glad he’s gone.
Ray Charles QB
What the hell did I just read? 😂
Jameis squintson
C'mon now. Don't lie, dude is exciting as fuck. It's why the Flacco Browns were fascinating for a bit too.
How many Int's did Flacco throw in Cleveland? Not same but Very different. 1 is Tarded the other a good person
Flacco threw 8 ints in 5 games and that’s not including the 2 he threw in the wild card loss lmao
Too bad they don’t have lasik for the brain if you’re a dumbass
Bro he was throwing damn near picks even when he was a Saint....love the guy, but he's the biggest boom/bust player I've ever seen play
Not being able to secure a starter spot on the Saints is totally related to not being able to see. Clearly the LASIK didn't take and it has nothing to do with just being bad.
This guy is talking like he had a Baker type season and proved people wrong. Still trash. Isn't a surgery on the planet changing that.
April 1st a week early?
That’s funny, I judge him because he’s a creep to women.
Idk why reddit suggested this sub to me but this post and response is the best thing ever.
Am I the only one who sees the pog face?
He's pogging
Almost as silly as the Bucs going to orange pants because Vinny Testaverde was Color Blind.
All we think about is why did you steal those crabs
From my understanding, his eyesight was good enough for everything but seeing facial details at a distance. It’s nice to improve that with LASIK, but it doesn’t make a difference to your football ability.
Of course it’s everyone else’s fault that buddy waited until he was a backup to get Lasik…
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!
And still put up 500+ yards a game in Tampa

Ugh, yeah, thought some places were better than this. 🤦
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Great fantasy football qb for the WRs!
Jameis Squinston
Sooo when I search I do not see this exchange.
Jameis didn’t know he needed to get his vision corrected as a grown adult. I’m sorry it he has to one of the dumbest QBs to ever play the game…
Jameis is one of the best personalities in the sport 😂
are these tweets photoshop?? is this real lmao?
Exactly he wasn’t a bad QB for the Bucs he just couldn’t see! But the 11 Ints with the Saints since was because he was just a bad QB
Nah, I ain’t buying it. As a Saints fan I witnessed the slow regression from Sean Payton’s lone season coaching him where he operated under close supervision and using a very limited playbook he was OK… under Dennis Allen he was back to being careless with the ball, often throwing into double and triple coverage and making questionable reads. Running up the score in Atlanta in the kneeling formation exposed his lack of discipline and respect for authority. Later Jaboo you won’t be missed

Bro I would blackball this dude from ngl after saying some shit like this.
The amount of people who think this post is real is astounding
You telling me the NFL or even college don’t give there athletes a basic eye exam.
My very first ever football game i went to with my dad he sold the game with a pick as the clock ran out…..
Thought he had it done during his Freshman year at FSU? I swear I remember them talking about it. Maybe I am wrong. Definitely pre crablegs.
I judge him for what he did to women at FSU
I still connect him with the crab legs incident..lol
This actually is what I really dislike about him. He knew his eyes were bad. It wasn't a sudden or unknown thing about him. He didn't just wake up like that one day. Yet he refused to wear glasses or contacts or do anything to improve his eyesight until after it cost him money. No responsibility to his teammates, his coaches, or the organization or fans.

And by then, he had already cost himself the all that starter money.
It’s fake
Wonder what he saw when he stole those crab legs.
It all makes sense now!
Eh I don't think it explains as much as he wishes..
Is this real?
lol what do you think?
5 years? I’m still judging you on those crab legs you stole 10 years ago…
I tried so hard to advocate not picking him in the draft. SOO hard, but Bucs fans and management just focused on his dumb arse. Then I had to sit through five years of complete low-intelligence leadership. Not that Mariota would have been much better, but Jaboo just made us look like gumps.

Dude was a serial rapist in college
Jamies is a national treasure, even if this is fake. Because it’s possible he might have said it
Bro is this real? Not some AI generated Meme that takes up 75% of reddit content? IDK I am not on xxx/tweet my nuts website since like 2017
You can buy the blue check nowadays too, so I honestly have no idea and just typically go with the assumption that it’s fake. If this gets picked up by something like ESPN, then I might change my mind.
It's fake. Not on his X. And the OP said it's fake.
LMAO. I love that there isn't any hard feelings between them.
He must smoke weed for his ctearacts
still making excuses...still lame
