Jameis Winston might not have played in Super Bowl 59, but he still found a way to steal the show as the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles faced each other in New Orleans.
The veteran quarterback was in full-on fan mode from the stands, as Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown pulled off a touchdown celebration that Winston requested.
Jameis Winston Had a Superfan Moment with A.J. Brown’s Celebration
During Super Bowl Opening Night, Winston, who was moonlighting as a reporter, asked Brown to hit the “Cha-Cha Slide” if he found the end zone on the biggest stage.
Fast forward to the game, and Brown delivered, busting out the dance after scoring just before halftime. Winston’s reaction? Pure, unfiltered hype.

When Winston first suggested it, the idea seemed like one of those fun media week moments that would fade away once the game started. However, Brown clearly took it to heart. The Eagles star hauled in a touchdown, took a beat to celebrate, and then started sliding to the left and right in true “Cha-Cha Slide” fashion.
Winston could barely believe what he was witnessing from his seat. He jumped up in excitement as he shouted, “OH MY GOD, HE DID IT?! I TOLD HIM!” It was the kind of viral moment that every fan hopes for.
Brown’s touchdown was just one of the many highlights in what turned out to be a dominant performance by the Eagles. They jumped out to an early lead and never looked back, dismantling the Chiefs 40-22 to win their second Super Bowl title.
Meanwhile, Jalen Hurts put on a clinic, throwing for 221 yards and two touchdowns while adding a record-setting 72 rushing yards as a quarterback. The Eagles’ defense was equally ruthless, forcing three turnovers, including a pick-six that helped bury the Chiefs before they could mount any real comeback.
The loss marked the end of the Chiefs’ dreams for an unprecedented three-peat. Patrick Mahomes fought until the final whistle, throwing for 257 yards and three touchdowns, but turnovers proved costly.
Winston is looking for his next NFL opportunity with free agency looming, and his high-energy presence during media week has only kept him in the spotlight.
As for Brown, he made good on a promise, put on a show, and helped deliver a championship, all at once.
