Jameis Winston wasn’t getting lucky in 2019.
But he sure was making things happen on the football field.
The Giants quarterback revealed on Wednesday’s episode of the Kelce brothers’ “New Heights” podcast that during his 2019 campaign with the Buccaneers, he was not only playing for a new contract but also had gotten engaged.
But during that period of time, Winston said he and his now wife, Breion Allen, withheld from having sex.
“That was a contract year for me, man. It was one of the most up-and-down years off the field that I had in my life, too,” Winston said. “I had just asked my wife to marry me and I was doing this freakin’ celibacy thing … like literally refraining from sex, man.”

Because of how his parents felt about him living with Allen — or as they called it “shacking” — before they were married, Winston said he had a new property but was not living there.
“We had to eliminate that,” Winston added as Travis and Jason Kelce both laughed. “I literally bought a property and was staying away from my house. It was so much going on.”
“You were wound up in the pocket,” Travis, the Chiefs star tight end, added.
On the field that season, Winston led the NFL in passing yards (5,109) attempts (626) and threw a career-best 33 touchdowns, though he was also the league leader in interceptions (30). He ended up signing a one-year deal with the Saints after the year, playing in New Orleans the next four seasons.
As for being part of Big Blue’s quarterback room now, Winston said he immediately could tell rookie Jaxson Dart was a “dog” upon joining the Giants and put in plenty of “sweat equity.”
“He is obsessed with football,” Winston said of Dart. “Anybody that’s coming in to be our head coach, you gotta know you’ve got a guy that wants to win, he’s gonna win because he’s obsessed.”
Winston did add that he wants Dart to improve with his calculated risk-taking, particularly with how he uses his legs outside of the pocket.
With the Giants looking to fill their head coaching void — as they await John Harbaugh’s decision — Winston said he wants the team to add someone who can bring “consistency” in the locker room.
“We need someone who is going to be who they are every single day,” Winston said.
