Jameis Winston to appear on Fox's Sunday NFL pregame shows
It might be a bye week, but New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston will still be working on Sunday.
Fox Sports announced on Friday that Winston will appear on both of the network's pregame shows - Fox NFL Sunday and Fox NFL Kickoff - ahead of Week 14.
This isn't Winston's first time hooking up with Fox. He was part of their digital team during Super Bowl week in February providing coverage all over New Orleans before the Philadephia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs met in Super Bowl LIX.

Winston will be the second Giants quarterback working an NFL pregame show this weekend. On Thursday, CBS Sports announced that Russell Wilson will appear as a guest analyst on "NFL Today."
It's not uncommon for NFL players to use their down time to get experience in media. Last season, Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams was a studio analyst for Fox. Former quarterback Matt Hasselback and current Fox analyst Greg Olsen worked as game analysts during bye weeks.
The 31-year-old Winston is in his 11th NFL season and first with the Giants. He signed a two-year deal in March and began the season as the No. 3 on the depth chart behind Wilson and rookie Jaxson Dart. He was elevated to No. 2 after Wilson was benched and started two games after Dart suffered a concussion.
