Jameis Winston: 'Drew Brees just outplayed me'

Published Dec. 13, 2015 11:31 p.m. ET

In Week 14, the New Orleans Saints and Drew Brees got the best of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Jameis Winston by a score of 24-17. While the Buccaneers saw their playoff chances take a pretty big hit with the loss, it didn't mean that their rookie quarterback wasn't willing to throw some praise in the direction of one of the best quarterbacks in history.

As Scott Reynolds of Pewter Report explained, when Winston was asked about Brees, one specific word he used probably summed it up best. Amazing.

“He was amazing,” Winston told Pewter Report. “When you convert, I think it was four third-and-extra-longs – I mean when you are playing against the best, we knew it as an offense [that] we have to show up. Drew Brees just outplayed me. This was the game for me to have a breakout game and put up some points on the board and he played better."

While Brees may have gotten the best of Winston in this one, it's safe to say that the rookie is turning into quite an NFL player as well in his first season in the league.
