Jameis Winston has become the face of FOX Sports’ campaign at the FIFA World Cup 2026 and he seems to be enjoying every bit of it. The NFL star is out and about taking in the sights and sounds of the tournament and he found himself in Kansas City for Argentina’s opening clash against Algeria.
And it seems that Winston had his favorites, with a real goat in an Argentina jersey being paraded around and him claiming to have met Lionel Messi because he was next to it.
“Just met Lionel Messi,” Winston wrote crouching next to a goat, signifying he felt that Messi was the greatest of all time.
Just moments earlier, he had a hilarious interaction with the goat in public too.
Fans Are Loving the Coverage
Not just Winston, but it seems like the fans are loving the coverage too, with many rushing into the comments section talking about Winston’s alleged meeting with Messi.
“Well deserved! You’re fun to watch,” one fan wrote.
“Jamies is having a fun offseason. Gotta love having him in the giants locker room,” another said.
“The career arch is spectacular. Keep going @Jaboowins🫡 Enjoying every bit of it,” another wrote.
“Are you sure you two aren’t twins?,” one fan said.
“THIS PICTURE HAS MADE MY WHOLE LIFE OMG,” another excitedly said.
Winston’s coverage for FOX Sports has been entertaining, but after his World Cup duties, he will focus on his regular job as quarterback for the New York Giants in preparation for a tough new season ahead.
