Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Absolutely. We're going to have some fun. But it's just going to be showing people the culture of the amazing New Orleans. Like it's gumbo. Gumbo is popular here for a reason. So I'm going to give them a little bit of everything, but... I love that.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I have to put a list to you. But one of my favorite spots is B-Spot. It's like Beyonce-inspired. I've got to get the street for you. But if you're going to be having 15 gumbos, we've got to make sure we get you cup size because they're very filling. But I think with anybody,
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
herbs saying as well, and when I think about food, but when I think what anybody say, like what can I get the best gumbo, they're gonna say, my grandma house.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I got a cousin on the West Bank, and she makes the best gumbo I ever had, so I will definitely get you a bowl, because she knows that Super Bowl is a big week, and it's Mardi Gras season, so a bunch of gumbo being made right now.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Well, for the most part, it's going to be a bunch of lifestyle pieces. I'm just going to get a chance to show everybody the culture that New Orleans has. We're going to go to Cafe Du Monde. We're going to do a nice segment there. When you think about coffee and beignets, you think about –
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Let's start with personally just because I think, like, I can get sometimes so wrapped up into what I do that we kind of speed past the whole experience that you actually had. The presence of actually being in the Cleveland Browns organization, witnessing some of the things that I witnessed, going through some of the things that I went through.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So personally, I would say that it was a season of resilience because we had some unfortunate injuries. We had some people that that I poured myself into because my expectation going to Cleveland was to be there to serve Deshaun and be there to provide this support and and leadership for him. And it hurt to see him go down quickly.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And then the way that people reacted of him going down, like me being the person that I am, I had to recalibrate some things to have a complete paradigm shift because of the love that I have for him. And also the love and respect that I have for the game and that city that I just chose to go to. So that was challenging because football gives us so much.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I mean, shoot, it's given me everything that I can even dream or imagine. But that moment where I had to get... just real like from a human experience with like some fans the people that i love the most the people i like making smile uh and that that just hurt because uh we all are humans we all have this experience we all have ups and downs and i think we all are trying to find a way to
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
you know, cope with those days. And that day wasn't a good day. And that was kind of like a precursor to the season. Right. You know what I'm saying? Because what I was looking forward to was getting that opportunity, being back on the field. And we had some wins early. But at the end of the day, like I – I didn't finish. I didn't finish the way that I wanted to finish.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I didn't have the story that we all wanted at the end. So that's how it was personally. But the whole process of being with Cleveland Browns was amazing because this was the first time my family got up and moved out of the South. So we were in Cleveland, and Cleveland was way better than what we expected. Obviously, we knew it was going to be gritty. We were going to see a lot of iron and steel.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
But being from Birmingham, I figured that's how the terrain would be. But the place that we stayed was in Chagrin Falls, man. Beautiful place, yeah. Bro, for a good... 90 days, we experienced some of the most beautiful weather that you only could imagine. So it was good for my family in that end.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
But football-wise, man, I'm still focusing on eliminating one thing from my play so that I can be all that I'm capable of being in this league forever. Yes, I like the new personality stuff. Yes, I like hopping on with y'all. But where I want to be in this league is somewhere where the greats stand.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And for me to be where the greats stand, I have to consistently execute and eliminate one thing from my play. And that's just fun. It's another resilient side to like, hey, man, you got LASIK now.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You know what I'm saying? Like what else do we have to do? What else do we have to learn? What else do we have to overcome or take out for us to be everything that we want to be?
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And the Lord did. Yeah, I know.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Absolutely. I know he had me off the rip. When I say that publicly, that outward confession, like that really was like a, obviously it was funny, but it was a cry. I was like, Lord, like, hey, I need you.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And unfortunately, I should have, honestly, that's why it's so important to be impeccable with your word, right? Because I should have said picks. Yeah, I know. I know, because he gave you the pick sixes. And I promise you, in my quiet place, I promise you I'm saying picks.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You know what I'm saying? I don't have to tackle too many people.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah, I'm grateful for that. But, you know, Sean Payne was on the other side, a young Bo Nix from Alabama. Like, he was the opposing quarterback. Like, in my documentary, like, that was supposed to be the time where I'm like Michael Jordan standing right there because I got Sean Payne, a young buck that I always loved watching him grow up. I mean, he was in Alabama. He won a state championship.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I never won a state championship. Being from Alabama, seeing him go to Auburn, he was the kid that went to the hometown school, got to experience all that stuff, and went off to Oregon, and now he's having an amazing year. So I'm just like, boy, I got to show this young buck a lesson. So I'm happy that he had a game. to Mims down the middle of the field.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So I'm like, okay, I want you to do something good. But we also, we got Jared Judy back coming back to this town and Sean Payne's on the other side. Like, I want to give it to them. You know what I'm saying? Pause. But I want to make sure that we win this game. You know, but, and that's the, obviously the love and the preparation that goes into that.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Like, you obviously can see that, that competitive side between me, Sean, and Bo. But I think winning is the biggest thing. Like, when you at quarterback, I think that's so important. Like, Yeah, you have some turnovers here. Yeah, you have some ups and downs, but eliminate negative plays and winning, it takes you so far.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Because man, I had the best four weeks of my life just talking to more people, you know, getting those interviews just because you're winning. Not because you're having lights out games, but winning.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
No, I'm grateful for that. But you know what I'm saying? Like, this is my dream. Like football is, I'm so grateful that God has given me this sport to steward with what I got. And I want to be the most at it, be the best at it.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah. You know, I, I, I have to commend the NFL for their deal with the broadcasting networks to have that segment now because that was relatively new to me. Typically, when I go back into the locker room, I'm getting ready, I'm focusing, I'm going over my notes, I'm going over my plays, and I'm putting myself in the place that I think that I need to be for this game.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So when I was having those interviews with Tracy and others, I was already getting to that level. that place. I was already getting to that place of just presence and preparing for the game. So for me to come back out and just be like, okay, now I got to talk about who knows what you're going to ask. I already know what the notes that I'm going over in my head.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So I'm going to repeat those to you because that's the mode that I'm on. I think I rewarded them with some wise words. Yeah, it was great.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Never in my entire life. What was it like? It was fun. I think it's like any kid that experiences snow for the first time. You don't know what to do. You really don't know how to build a snowman. You know what I'm saying? I'm happy that YouTube is available because that was one of the first things. I didn't know how to build a snowman.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
It was awful because I tried to build the snow while it was fresh. You know what I'm saying? That's a story for another day. You got to pack it in. Literally, I was so enamored with the snow that I was just like, man, do we have to play? Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like, can we play a snow, but we did, we did play a snow version of football, but it was amazing.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
That was crazy. My head hit the ground. Yeah. Frozen tundra, not the frozen tundra, I guess, but the frozen Cleveland Browns. Wait, so did you build the snowman? So let me tell you about the story about the snowman. I actually didn't even build the snowman in Cleveland. Oh. I built the snow in New Orleans. You did when it snowed here. Yes, when it snowed here.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So during Cleveland, when it snowed, I was away from my babies. My babies were at school. We didn't have time throughout the day where it still was light for us to go outside and build the snow. But God bless us with snow in New Orleans.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So I'm outside there trying to build a snow, like, and my kid, my baby, he's suffering because we didn't have, like, the, we had all of our waterproof, like, material up in Cleveland. Right. Like, we just got him some gloves from Costco, and we just, like, these are going to work. My poor four-year-old, like, he out there shivering in the snow because he's trying to, we,

Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s

Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So I'm trying to build this snowman, and I just did an awful job. And it rained in Alabama, and my assistant, Nadia, she showed me a picture of her snowman. And she had my trainer, my famous trainer, Otis Leverett, his wife, the one who does all the position-specific workout. So they had his football helmet on. had a glove on a stick that they had one of her scarves on.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So it was a good looking snowman. I have to show y'all this so y'all can have this clip. So I was looking at my snowman and it just looked like a snow heel.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I did put eyes on it. So my cousin, again, she gave my wife, like my wife went over to get some gumbo because she prepared us. She was like, you can't be in the snow without no gumbo. So she went over there to get the gumbo and she gave us a fake carrot snows and some things to put on the snowman because she knew that we were going to build a luxurious snowman.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
She didn't know that I had no idea how to build a snowman. And I'm calling Nadia. I'm like, Nadia, my babies, they're going to laugh at me because I don't know how to build no snowman. YouTube, I got this Wi-Fi not working. I can't look it up on YouTube. Chat GPT ain't working. So I'm just like, how am I going to build a snowman? She said, just build a ball and just roll it in the snow.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Do you know I was... I almost had frostbite trying to roll that ball in the snow because it was too soft. It kept coming off and I couldn't build a snowman. My child, he's just looking at me like my oldest Malachi, he's just looking at me like, Dad, I can't even tell my friends I can build a snowman because you don't know how to build a snowman. I'm like, well, you're supposed to be helping.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah, that's what my heart desires. Obviously, I'm looking for an opportunity where it's kind of like –
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
bridge opportunity where I get to go in there, lead another young guy, and man, go in there and have opportunity, dominate where I'm supposed to dominate, win some football games and have a GM and have an organization say, hey, like, man, we believe in you, Jameis, like, but I need that opportunity to show that.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Because that's why I feel like I'm in that position again, where like, man, I have to get in that position and show that.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
But that's stuff that I can do in my sleep. The biggest thing is winning. You know what I'm saying? I try to shift away from the interceptions because those matter, but those also accumulate to not winning. So whatever I need to do that's required to win and be focused on winning, if that's going 20 for 28 for 17 yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions, but a win, that's doing it.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Whatever is required... For us to win the game is like my focus because obviously I get hyped up and I place so much trust into my teammates, into my coaches, and we're out there executing this thing together. But at the end of the day, the quarterback position, I got the last say-so with that peel in my hand.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah, well, I try to eliminate any thoughts about picks. Okay. You know what I'm saying? And focus just on winning every single rep. Yeah, yeah. You know, like, because I try to create humor with the picks, right? Like, hey, like, it's still a completion. Yeah. Yeah. Not really.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You can.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah. And that's you playing the game. So, like, maybe when... when you playing the game, start visualizing me. And record me doing that, winning the Super Bowl. That's what got me. Because I won so many Heisman trophies, so many national championships on NCAA when it was out. I never really played Madden that much.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Literally.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You better ask my wife. I got Madden. And I'm visualizing. My brother is whooping my butt religiously in Madden every time I get on the sticks. Have you thought about doing the VR thing? Virtual reality? Man, so I've experienced that, what Jaden was doing. So I experienced that. I'm curious to see what brand he had. It's a German company. Okay.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, I remember. I remember when I first got to the Saints, I believe they tried to bring that to us. And they talked about building, I think they were going to build a room for that because they had it. They had it in Louisiana, but we should have did it at LSU. We should have did it.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
But I believe at Tampa, we did an experience like that where I did have some virtual reality related training at Tampa early on in my career. But I'm sure that the... It's better, high quality now. Yeah.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Me too. At Cleveland, we had some type of virtual reality type sensors, but it was not like I wasn't immersed in the game. It was just like Tecmo Bowl players moving around like slow motion. Yeah, we got to get you on the good stuff. Like this is not going to work.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Whatever's required.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, I was I was very close to going to Stanford in my mind. Right. Like Stanford was the dream school that I've always thought that I would be at playing baseball and football. Because you just think about John Elway. Right. So academically and football, athletically, I thought that was the epitome of going somewhere and playing football. But I knew that I could not be that far away from Alabama.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You know, so Stanford. Florida State and LSU were my options. Like they were my final options. I wanted to go to Texas. I feel like Texas Longhorns, I feel like that would have fit me well. Like I even had like this, my mama got me this fossil Texas watch because I told her that's the school I wanted to go to. It was a school I still had a watch to this day.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
back to stanford stanford was was uh would have been an excellent opportunity for me because nor davis was there and just pete uh aziz aziz uh he was there um so like i built some great relationships with some of the recruits that still were there so i really was close to going if i would have had the courage uh to take that trip out west yeah long distance to go for sure
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Well, it was more of a dream. When I went out there on my official visit, Coach David Shaw was there. I got a chance to speak with Condoleezza Rice. The experience was unmatched. What was that like, talking to Condoleezza Rice? Well, it was... It was amazing just to get a chance to to know that she was from Alabama.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You know, I didn't get a chance to have a meeting with her like face to face, but having to be able to speak with her and hearing them talk about how her office had only looked someplace on the campus. I think that was that was amazing.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
It's good. I did something to my SC joint, and that's kind of like my inner collarbone. Because of the calories of my AC joint, I require movement from there in a way. So for a period of time, it was very challenging for me to throw the ball. And if you can't throw the ball elite in the NFL, it's just not really going to work out. So it was after the Kansas City game. So I'm good now.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I can spin it.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I think... I don't want to get you in trouble. I think the period is going on, not now, but I think as agents are talking about other prospects... Getting into the league, especially the draft, senior bowlers, the strong bowl. I believe they strategically placing in some of their free agents for this upcoming year. But I believe it starts when you're really released, like the first part of March.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I mean, I love it.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s

Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, I love Pittsburgh, you know, because I admire Coach Mike Thomas so much. You know, the first Super Bowl ring that I ever held in my hand was a 2009 Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowl ring from Bruce Arians. Uh, so that, that is definitely aligned with my vision. Uh, but, uh, but I don't know. I don't know what my Browns fans would say about Pittsburgh.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
That'd be, that'd be challenging, but you know, it really doesn't matter. Honestly, that opportunity presents itself. Uh, yeah, I would love, I would love to team up with coach Mike Thomas.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, I would love Miami. And you know what? Again, back to my whole Cleveland Browns story, right, just how it was. Like, how about Tyler Huntley? I'm just going to give him a shout-out, man, because he was – like, that was the quarterback room in Cleveland. Tyler Huntley, Dorian Thomas Robinson, Deshaun, and myself, right? That was the training camp.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And for him to have a situation where he and Dorian are competing – and to stay present and go back to Baltimore and then go to Miami, where he from down South Florida, that area, and play some good games for Miami. I'm so proud of him for that. But Miami would be good because I got a lot of respect for Tua and his family.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And if it's one man that I would like to serve, it would be him and his family because his dad and my dad have developed a great relationship. So I'm definitely pulling for him and his health to remain strong and to remain in a healing state because he works a lot to stay healthy. And he's a tough player. So he's going to be good. But I would like to go to Miami.

Country music guy? Nashville. Man, listen, I do love country music. Back to the days when Jake Owen and Luke Brown used to come and visit Tallahassee. I've always had that southern drawl to be able to break down a country music album soon.

Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You think so?
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, I would love it. Nashville is pretty cool.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, if I can get – Colorado Rockies. Man, I got to call my guy David Dahl. Like, he played for the Colorado Rockies. But wherever.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah, I would love to have that opportunity. But when my focus is focused on, you know, football and OTAs and whatever's required in that – I don't believe that I will be able to, but man, I can just go to the band cages somewhere down to the Yankees in Tampa Bay and just hit some BP there.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
That's right. That's true.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
So I trained baseball last year. I literally – my brother's hitting coach. His name is – man, it's removing right now. But my brother's hitting coach, who is a scout for the Atlanta Braves – we actually train for the first five weeks after the Super Bowl. Every Thursday we hand ground balls. We were over at Gerard Park in New Orleans, handing the cages, like training.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
catching fly balls, filling ground balls, because I think that is a direct correlation to playing the quarterback. When you see how Patrick Mahomes does it and Josh Allen, how they come up from these different angles, even Jalen and his wins, his RPO games, being able to throw from different angles is so important. And, uh, being able to squat down and move around the pocket.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You see how extending the play is as big as it's ever been in the NFL nowadays. Like if you can't extend a play, like from a regular routine play, like you're going to have a tough time.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah, oh my gosh. I would love to be here. Just... Family? Not just family. Like, just this city. Man, you know, and that's why earlier I didn't say it. I don't feel worthy enough to say this is my city because this is Drew Brees' city.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
That's fair. Because what he did for this city, this Champagne City, this is Mickey Loomis City.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You know what I'm saying? I had to put Mickey out there because Mickey, if you listen to this, I will... But no, I would love to be a New Orleans Saint, man. Because just even the energy here, it's the same energy that I possess. And I love my people. So I ain't going to say they my family. These my people down here. And you can see it. You're going to definitely see it on Fox.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
You're going to see me with my people. You know what I'm saying? In the words of a Baton Rouge legend, with it, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. I got my people with me.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Man, I'm still – honestly, my visualization and desire is still with being a Super Bowl winning quarterback for an NFL franchise. And that's where I am. There are times where in my quiet time where I think about what my heart – And one of those things right now is just becoming a better father to my children. My oldest is about to be seven now.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And me and my dad always discussed how the age of seven would be that time where I would have to bunker down putting more intentional time into leading my son to what his heart desires. Because he felt like my aunt, she always told me that the age of seven is when the kids, they lose their subconscious and they start to really take in every word that you say.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And they start making decisions on their own. So when I'm in my quiet time, that's the thing is I'm thinking about like, man, how can I serve my son who about to be seven? Because I know it's his own time. Like I can't be like when he cry, like I can't be like, oh baby, like I'm going to be pushing him. to the limit, you know, but also loving him and guiding him. Yeah.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Yeah. I mean, I know there are a lot of pediatricians out there or people that process this information. The age seven, I don't know the scientific term, whether they lose their subconscious, but seven is a prominent age for child development. And in terms of how they think, how they learn and how they go about.

What I do from an NFL perspective, from a father perspective, from a husband perspective, is small to the grand scheme of things of the impact that I can have on lives everywhere across this entire world. Obviously within my household, that's the most important thing right now. How I go within, how I'm treating my own family is how I'm going to go about doing the rest of the world.
Pardon My Take

Okay, why is Tay-Tay your favorite? I think what he has overcame. Man, when we grew up, he was always the person that people didn't mess with. But, you know, in terms of school, he was always misunderstood, whether it's from grade school all the way up. And I took just a leap of faith because he had numerous medications. So, like, hey, Tay, when I go to Temple, like, man, You come with me.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
And actually it ended up like this. It wasn't like, you come with me. It was more like, hey Tay, you come on down here, spend a good time in Tampa. Then Tay ain't want to leave. You know what I'm saying? And then I was just like, man, nah. You deserve this. You deserve to experience this with me. And, like, man, he doesn't take all those meds that he's been taking. Man, he's finding him a job.

Who'd you vote for for the Heisman? Who did I vote for? Well, I voted for Shadur. First? No, he was on there. I voted for Travis. And I voted for Cam Ward. That's who I voted for. No order, but I know Shadur was... He was just how my mind, just because of... what he has encompassed throughout his whole collegiate career. And it's similar, like, to Bo, right?
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
Because I got a chance to be in the same state as Bo and see him show up. But we all got to witness, like, Shadur's maturation process, even when DM was coaching the high school team in Dallas. Like, they had a TV show back then because, I mean – I know prime time is some of y'all favorite athletes out there. So just all he encompassed as like his whole collegiate career, we got to see it.

And he never played a bad game. All he did was ball. You know what I'm saying? He had a few losses here and there, but he balled out for the most part. So I had to make sure that he got him a trip up there to New York. I don't know if he did, but I'm glad Travis won. I'm glad Cam Warren had the year he won. I just wish he would've went to Florida State. Yeah. With this NIL stuff, it was crazy.

Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
I'm just like, why did you do that? She's probably trying to get Florida State back on track. She did it for the nose. But I'm just saying, like. Do we not think about that with our dogs?

I just want to educate everyone about the new addition of NIL and the things that it allows our young athletes to do or not to do. And before NIL, if you did anything illegal, you would get suspended. You would lose your year of eligibility and your career would be over. So I don't condone anything bad happening from a collegiate athlete that was done between 2016 through before that.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
But when NIL started, a lot of opportunities and doors that were already open were reopened with the birth of a collective saying, we're going to give you money.

Man, I'm in a win-win for this situation because we're witnessing Patrick Mahomes do something that we haven't really witnessed be done from another quarterback this early on in their career.

I think that's amazing as well. Just the storyline, just what everything the NFL encompasses, I think that's amazing. But we also, I grew up a Philadelphia Eagles fan. I've always admired Jalen Hurts and what he does from the quarterback position, because I think a lot of people shortchange him and what he does, and what he does is he does the most important quality
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
of a quarterback, and that is to win. So I'm excited to see him step onto this stage, him being four hours down the road in Houston, Texas, this being a home-like game for him. You know, two Texas boys with their second matchup together in the Dome, the city of life, the city of resilience. Will Jalen make the most of his second opportunity? Will the King rise again?

Oh, yeah. Man, you know, I'm a huge Kendrick Lamar fan, but, like, I think, like, I don't want – I want to know what y'all opinion would be about if Lil Wayne brought the culture of New Orleans and all the artists in New Orleans and performed – Because most of the fans there at the Super Bowl, they're probably not Kendrick Lamar fans. You know what I'm saying? They're probably not Lil Wayne fans.
Pardon My Take
Eagles Lane Johnson, Jameis Winston, Day 3 In New Orleans And Listener FAQ’s
But I think understanding the culture and experience of this city, what Lil Wayne would have been able to do. I know Kendrick is going to rock the house. I know that for a fact. But I think Lil Wayne, he wanted that Super Bowl experience to be back home. I'm a no-limit soldier. We don't die.
