Jameis Winston was having the time of his life on the sidelines last Sunday. During a game against the rival Atlanta Falcons, the quarterback was spotted rapping along to Ludacris.
He did so while his teammate Derek Carr struggled.
Ludacris was on hand for the NFC South matchup, rappelling from the roof before the contest.

The rapper’s presence was part of the 50th anniversary celebration of hip hop, which saw a number of notable live performances from music’s superstars.
Jameis Winston was enjoying the show, taking a moment at halftime to join in on the action.
He was spotted rapping to Ludacris to Carr on the bench.

Many noted that while Winston was having his moment, his teammate was fighting for his life on the football field.
Carr has largely been a letdown in New Orleans this season, leading the team to just a 5-5 start prior to the meeting with Atlanta. The struggles continued Sunday.
The Saints fell behind 14-9 in the first half with Carr failing to lead his unit into the endzone. The low point came in the first quarter with his offense positioned in the redzone.
Carr seemed to stare down a receiver, allowing safety Jessie Bates to jump a route and return an interception 92 yards for a touchdown.

The image of Winston being absolutely oblivious to Carr’s mindset is too funny.
“Carr fighting for his life and Jameis having the time of his got me in TEARS.”
“Singing ‘Move B, Get Out The Way’ to Derek Carr at halftime. Was he sending a message here?”
“Jameis Winston is the most unintentionally hilarious football player of all time. The come back to give Carr more of what he certainly did not want is the best part…”
The performance wouldn’t help Winston’s teammate lead a comeback bid. The Saints lost to the Falcons 24-15, failing to score a touchdown.
