New York Giants backup quarterback Jameis Winston went for a steak lunch with pre-teen internet personality The Rizzler, with the latter sharing a photo on social media. In one of the photos, the pair each made their signature expressions: Winston’s “Eating the W” an the Rizzler’s “Rizz Face.”
The 32-year-old journeyman quarterback and general real-life cartoon character — besides, of course, the sexual assault and groping allegations (we can’t let his goofiness completely launder his image) — perpetuated his antics by posing for photos with “The Rizzler.”
The pair were out to eat at Carbone Privato, Carbone Privato, a private Carbone location only open to the members of ZZ’s Club in the Hudson Yards. In order to become a member at ZZ’s Club, there is an one-time initiation fee of $20,000 and an annual fee of $10,000.
In addition to The Rizzler, Winston is also posing alongside (presumably) one of his two sons, who hilariously couldn’t look less interested.

“ZZ’s Club is a private membership club from Major Food Group that features interior design from the renowned Ken Fulk and offers its exclusive community the pinnacle of luxury, a personalized style of hospitality, and the highest caliber cuisine. Amenities include a modern Japanese restaurant, a cigar terrace, and a glamorous lounge showcasing a range of music programming. Among its numerous coveted spaces is the world’s first and only private location of CARBONE.” [via ZZ’s Club]
The most confounding element of the photo, however, is actually not who is sitting at the table, but WHAT is sitting on it: notably, a bowl of grapes on ice, with the top reply to the tweet pointing out the bizarreness of that dish.
As for the other items on the table, there appears to be a couple of cocktails — potentially one of which being a jalapeño margarita — and some unidentifiable cake-looking dish.
Winston signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Giants last March, which means — unless he’s cut between now and September — he’ll be in New York for John Harbaugh’s first season with the team. With veteran Russell Wilson moving on, Winston could perhaps be the backup to Jaxson Dart.
