Jameis Winston wrote in a social media post on Wednesday that he believes he’s still a “championship caliber starting quarterback,” but is choosing to stay with the New Orleans Saints to see the team win a Super Bowl.
Winston explained his decision to return to the Saints and likely be the backup to Derek Carr, who signed a four-year deal with the team earlier this month.

“First, I love this city. In all of my professional career, I’ve never felt so culturally in tune with a fan base,” Winston explained on Instagram. “The Saints fans that I’ve met have been incredible. Y’all have made me and my family feel at home. That is why last season was so disappointing to me. I want to see this team and city succeed. I know great things are ahead for this team, and this city! I was led here by the spirit that’s why I would never run away from this new challenge.
