👀 Winston’s day in ‘The Most Amazing City on Earth’

NEW YORK — Jameis Winston stood on top of a red double-decker bus in the middle of Manhattan with his arms extended as if the city that never sleeps was his oyster. He began belting out lines to the musical «Hamilton» with a massive smile across his face.

«It’s the Greatest City in the World! It’s the Greatest City in the World!» Winston repeated multiple times as the bus inched down 45th Street toward Broadway.

Winston, 31, in his first year with the New York Giants, stood and asked those on board for the midday journey to snap pictures of him with the Richard Rodgers Theatre and the «Hamilton» marquee in the background. He was on a tour of the city with Super Bowl winners and Giants legends Eli Manning and Shaun O’Hara for «The Eli Manning Show,» in conjunction with NYC Tourism + Conventions and the city’s 400th anniversary. This specific landmark clearly struck a chord with the quarterback who joined the Giants back in March.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (who drafted him No. 1 in 2015), he spent four years in New Orleans and one year in Cleveland, before landing back in the Big Apple with the Giants.

In fact, Winston was reminded by a picture with one of the owners of Joe’s Pizza that he visited that exact spot during his Heisman weekend in 2013. Back then he was a young man on the verge of a becoming a professional football player. He’s now a husband, father and sage veteran whose voice and leadership in the quarterback room are exactly what the Giants need.

And he’s enjoying every second of his journey in the Big Apple, which he hopes is just beginning.
