Jameis Winston: I didn't steal the crab legs

Former Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston, who is projected to be the first overall selection in the NFL draft, said during an appearance on ESPN's Draft Academy that he never stole crab legs last year and that they instead were given to him by a grocery store employee.

 

The former Heisman Trophy winner was issued a civil citation for shoplifting on April 29, 2014, after he walked out of a Tallahassee, Florida, supermarket without paying for $32 worth of crab legs and crawfish.

 

"How I'm supposed to handle, like, if I just got them for free? I just say, 'I just messed up?'" Winston asked Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh during ESPN's Draft Academy, which aired Tuesday night but was taped before the NFL scouting combine in February.

 

When asked by Harbaugh to elaborate on the incident, Winston said it wasn't the first time he had gotten free food from an individual working at that store.

"Well, a week before, it was my buddy's birthday and we had got a cake. And we met a dude that worked inside Publix and he said, 'Hey, anytime you come in here, I got you.' So that day we just walked out and he hooked us up with that," Winston said.

 

"And when I came in to get crab legs, I did the same thing and he just gave them to me and I walked out. And someone from inside the store had told the security that I didn't pay for them. And that's how the whole thing started.

I think he was better of with stealing them. We were broke as anything and it was my buddies birthday and I made a bad decision. Way better than the sense of entitlement that some guy at a Publix gives you food and you don't have to pay. It is essentially I didn't steal it, I just walked out without paying for it.

 

And it sure does look like he loves some crab legs.

Rule one of being a college athlete: never accept free stuff.

 

As ridiculous as the NCAA rules are, it can cause a ton of headaches.  Granted, everybody knows players get free stuff all the time and rarely get caught.
