Jameis Winston has secured the role of primary backup quarterback for the Cleveland Browns as they head into the 2024 NFL season. Following a challenging backup stint in 2023, Winston's addition brings notable talent to the position.
Having shown promise throughout his career, he notably flashed potential during his time with the New Orleans Saints. Injuries, however, hindered his ability to maintain a starting role. Ranked as the No. 4 backup quarterback by Bleacher Report, Winston is recognized for being a "serviceable starter" if needed.
The Browns hope Deshaun Watson excels and remains healthy, but should he falter, Winston stands ready to step in, providing Cleveland with a stronger quarterback situation moving forward.
