Between resigning Taysom Hill and now Winston, its an interesting use of cap money. I saw a funny stat: Winston has thrown more INTs to Saints players than Hill has completions to Saints players. LMAO. 

New Orleans Saints' Jameis Winston Gamble Presents Big Potential Payoff
Something witty like "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" seems appropriate since former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston signed with the New Orleans Saints, but that's too cliche considering the Saints are taking the smart approach in addressing a glaring need behind 41-year-old Drew Brees.

Winston signed a one-year deal with the former rival worth $1.1 million in base salary with $3.4 million in available incentives, according to ESPN's Field Yates.
The signing brings last season's passing yardage leader into the fold and creates the league's most competitive backup quarterback situation.
The Saints took the same approach with Teddy Bridgewater. They traded for him in 2018 and then signed him to a one-year deal in 2019 to serve as Brees' backup.
The move proved fortuitous when their franchise signal-caller suffered a thumb injury last season and required Bridgewater to start five games. The Saints won each of those contests, and Bridgewater showed he's more than a game-manager capable of keeping the offense afloat for a short period.
Both the organization and the backup benefited from the setup. Bridgewater used his starting stretch as a showcase for a starter-level free-agent deal with the Carolina Panthers.
