As I recall, he made the comment right after the Hurricanes lost to Tennessee. My memory is fuzzy regarding what you are saying about standing over a player. I just don't recall. I do recall him being really upset that the Hurricanes lost.
He was not in any way comparing himself or any other football player to people who are fighting for our country.
It is one of those things where if people want to be offended and go out of their way to be offended, they will read something into a comment like that.
Winslow works hard, makes clutch plays, and would be an outstanding addition to our team as a tight end. I doubt that a deal will ever get done for him, but if it did, he would be a nice addition.
