2022 NFL season: Most overrated player on all 32 NFL teams
New Orleans Saints: Jameis Winston, QB
With Drew Brees retiring after the 2020 NFL season, and Sean Payton stepping down after last season, the New Orleans Saints are in turmoil heading into 2022. Now that he is healthy, Jameis Winston will assume the starting quarterback role, but is he someone the Saints can count on?
Winston has not played like a first-round pick in some time, and while he would be an outstanding backup, giving him the keys to the car against could be a disaster for Dennis Allen, the team’s new head coach. Is Winston ready to lead a team? That remains to be seen, but anyone thinking he is going to set the NFL on fire could be massively disappointed.
New York Giants: Kenny Golladay, WR
When the New York Giants were able to land Kenny Golladay in free agency last offseason, it was seen as a franchise-changing get. The Giants had been lacking a true WR1 for quite some time, and Golladay was coming off some strong seasons playing for the lowly Detroit Lions.
Incredibly, Golladay was downright bad for New York, hauling in less than 40 catches despite missing only three games. If he wants to assume his title as the WR1 in New York, he is going to have to at least double that number, which I do not see happening.
