Eminem quotes Browns quarterback Jameis Winston after win


Winston lost himself by quoting “a white boy from Detroit that I really admire”

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston gave the win to God — and Eminem — following the Browns’ win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

“There’s a white boy from Detroit that I really admire named Eminem, and he said, ‘You only get one chance, don’t miss your chance to strike, it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity,'” Winston said, quoting Eminem’s song. “Lose” Yourself,” his Oscar-winning 2002 hit.

“I know I have to quote Eminem, he’s from Detroit, he’s right down the road. But man, I’m just grateful, I’m grateful that God gave me this opportunity, I’m grateful for my teammates. , my coaches and these great fans,” Winston said.

Winston’s comments came after the Browns defeated the Ravens 29-24. It was the quarterback’s first start since 2022 and the Browns’ second win of the season.

Winston signed a one-year deal with the Browns in March and was activated after Browns starting quarterback Deshaun Watson tore his Achilles in last week’s game against the Bengals.

Winston threw for 334 yards and three touchdowns.

Winston’s performance wasn’t Eminem’s only football-related activity on Sunday. After Kid Rock mentioned Eminem and the difference in their political beliefs in a video he released on Friday, Eminem responded to Rock on Sunday.

“Here’s where @KidRock and I agree… GO @Lions!!!!,” Eminem wrote on X. “Appreciate you Bob.”
