Jameis Winston, the wildly popular journeyman quarterback in fantasy football finds a home with the Giants.

Jameis Winston is a New York Giant. The entertaining quarterback both on and off the field is heading to the media capital of the world. 

 

Winston has signed a 2-year $8 million deal with the Giants. In 2024, the Cleveland Browns were No.1 in team pass pays per game with 42.8 and No.3 in pace of play. Jameis Winston was also No.11 in interceptable passes.

 

The signing immediately satiates a dopamine hit for Malik Nabers fantasy managers. While a quarterback is well within play be it Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders, or Jaxson Dart in round 1, it is easy to envision the first month of the season being filled with YOLO balls thrown to Malik Nabers before the future franchise quarterback takes the reins. 

 

In 2024, Malik Nabers was the WR-6 in fantasy. Nabers hauled in 109 receptions on 170 targets, 1,204 receiving yards, and 7 touchdown receptions. While Jameis Winston is a volatile quarterback, his competency and willingness to feed his teammates the ball gives credence to the idea of Malik Nabers vaulting to WR-1 overall in fantasy football. Good luck acquiring Malik Nabers in dynasty as even Liam Neeson would have a difficult time finding a way to trade for him.
