Jameis Winston had a funny comment on Twitter after being mocked for his struggles with a tackling pad.

Winston was running through a gauntlet machine during the New Orleans Saints’ training camp practice on Wednesday. Let’s just say the gauntlet machine got the best of him.

When you’re made to look silly look that, laughing about it is the best thing you can do.

Winston is competing with Taysom Hill to be the Saints’ starting quarterback. A recent report suggested Hill was in line to begin the season as the team’s starter.
