Cam Jordan wants Saints to trade for Giants' Winston
Saints defensive lineman Cam Jordan is advocating for New Orleans to trade for New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston.
"Jameis?" Jordan said on the "Up & Adams" show when asked what veteran signal-caller he'd like his team to acquire. "There's Russell (Wilson) over there, they got Jaxson Dart. My guy Jameis, come on down.
"It makes a lot of sense ... I'm going all-in. Jameis as the veteran quarterback. Come on over."
Winston, 31, was teammates with Jordan from 2020-23, when he primarily served as the Saints' backup quarterback.
Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener, as well as rookies Tyler Shough and Hunter Dekkers, are currently battling to be New Orleans' starting signal-caller. Both Rattler and Haener started last season for the Saints.
Derek Carr retired in early May due to a labral tear in his shoulder that resulted in significant degenerative changes to his rotator cuff.
Winston signed a two-year, $8-million deal with the Giants in free agency. The Giants also signed Wilson to a one-year contract and selected Dart in the first round of April's draft.
Winston spent the 2024 season with the Browns, going 2-5 in seven starts with 2,121 passing yards and 13 touchdowns.
