Winfrey compared his getting drafted to Cleveland to that of his idol, LeBron James. He feels both were due to fate.
Winfrey, who delivered the most Dawg-gone impassioned draft day interview in Browns history — one that went viral — has basked in the outpouring of support and woofs since he hit town.
“The love has been crazy,” he said. “Immediately when I got off the plane, there were fans in there with helmets and stuff. I don’t even know how they got in the airport. I’ve been signing a whole bunch of signatures. Everybody’s been showing love. It’s been definitely crazy since I did that.”“Yeah, he texted me right after [I got drafted], just told me congratulations, that he was ready to work.
It doesn’t mean, however, that he’ll be barking up a storm when the rookies join the veterans next week in the offseason program. “I feel like at first I’ll be more seen than heard, just letting my actions do the talking and obviously following anything that Myles Garrett does,” Winfrey said. “He goes to the bathroom, I go to the bathroom. He gets a drink of water, I’m getting a drink of water. No, I’m just playing, but obviously just taking in the stuff that he’s teaching me because he’s obviously doing something great at this level and that’s something that I want to do.
“So just following in his footsteps. I won’t ... be trying to dominate people right away and tell people what to do. I’ll more so likely be listening and soaking things in like a sponge.”Here’s where you can order
