Jameis Winston had LASIK eye surgery and NFL fans had lots of obvious jokes

I’ve never played quarterback in the NFL but I have to imagine having a good eyesight can only help you to be better at your job.

If true, then Jameis Winston took a big step at getting better this week as he underwent LASIK eye surgery to make sure his vision was perfect.

This comes over a month after Winston became the first QB in NFL history to have 30 TD passes and 30 interceptions in a season. Not the type of history you’d want to make, but it’s history nonetheless.

Now he’s going to be a free agent and it looks like he’s willing to do whatever it takes to be at his best:

Free-agent QB Jameis Winston underwent Lasik surgery. “Jameis did not want to count out any options that he had that could possibly help him with the game he loves so much,” said his spokeswoman Denise White. “He doesn’t want to miss out on any opportunity that presents itself.”

NFL fans, meanwhile, didn’t want to miss out on any jokes:

As somebody who has had LASIK (money extremely well spent), I can confirm to Jameis Winston that it does not improve recognition of your opponent’s jersey color.
