ORLANDO, Fla. Colin Kaepernick 49ers Jersey . -- Eric Winston was elected president of the NFL Players Association
on Wednesday, three years after he was active for the union during the
lockout.
The 30-year-old offensive lineman was the Arizona Cardinals starting
right tackle last season, his eighth in the league. He is currently a
free agent.
Winston succeeds Domonique Foxworth as NFLPA president. Foxworth was out
of the league last season and so could not seek re-election.
NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith tweeted: "Thank you to
@Foxworth24 and all the Executive Committee for their leadership.
Congratulations to Eric Winston. Lots of great work ahead."
The other candidates for president were New Orleans Saints tight end Ben
Watson and former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark, who is a free
agent.
Watson and Clark will both serve on the executive committee elected
later Wednesday by the unions board of representatives. Clark joined
Lorenzo Alexander and Jay Feely of the Cardinals, Zak DeOssie and
Mark Herzlich of the Giants, Adam Vinatieri of the Colts, and
Scott Wells of the Rams as new members of the executive committee.
Watson, Matt Hasselbeck of the Colts, and free agent Brian Waters were
re-elected.
Saints quarterback Drew Brees stepped down from the executive committee.
Winston has played for Houston, Kansas City and Arizona since being
chosen by the Texans in the third round of the 2006 draft. He played his
first six NFL seasons with the Texans, joined the Chiefs in 2012, then
moved to the Cardinals last season. Winston has started 112 consecutive
games.
He has served on the unions committees for finance and agent discipline
and does community work on behalf of Shriners Hospital for Children.
Winston was elected as a co-alternate union representative by the Texans
in 2010.
While in Kansas City, he drew plenty of national attention early in the
2012 season, when he criticized Chiefs fans who cheered when the teams
then-quarterback, Matt Cassel, got a concussion during a game.
"Its 100 per cent sickening," Winston said that day. "Ive never, ever --
and Ive been in some rough times on some rough teams -- Ive never been
more embarrassed in my life to play football than at that moment right
there."

on Tuesday and was unhappy.TEMPE, Ariz. -- Los Angeles Angels manager
Mike Scioscia doesnt expect Bobby Abreu to be a distraction in the
clubhouse this season.
Speaking a day after Abreu said in a statement to ESPNdeportes that the
Angels should trade him if he is going to spend most of his time on the
bench this season, Scioscia spoke highly of the outfielder who will turn
38 on March 11, but stopped short of saying he will play every day.
"I dont think Bobbys going to be anything but a player who wants to come
out here and wants to help us win," Scioscia said Wednesday. "Bobby and
I have always spoken very candidly. Hes a professional. I dont think
there are many guys any more professional than Bobby."
With the addition of Albert Pujols, Kendry Morales return from injury
and Mark Trumbos emergence last year, it appears Abreu could lose
significant playing time this season.
"Im an everyday player, and can be in the lineup for a big league team,"
Abreu told ESPNdeportes.com Tuesday. "Im not going to be on the bench
knowing I can play. If the Angels dont have a set position for me, then
the best thing they can do is trade me. Itd be the right thing to do. Im
not going to do anything sitting on the bench."
Abreu hit.253 last year, his lowest average over a full season and only
two points below his 2010 average. His on-base percentage was a
respectable .353 last season, but well below his career OBP of .397 and
his .390 OBP during a strong 2009 season, his first with the Angels.
Abreu also hit only eight homers with 60 RBIs last year, a steep dropoff
from 2010 when he had 20 homers and 78 RBIs.
Scioscia insisted that tthere will be plenty of playing time for Abreu. Joe Montana 49ers Jersey. .
"I certainly dont see him as a bench player, but I definitely see him as
getting value in playing time," Scioscia said. "How much its going to
be ... there are a lot of guys competing for at-bats, we know that. I
dont think Bobby would be valuable playing him once or twice a week. We
would have to play him more than that and there are certainly ways to
get a lot of guys into the lineup to where theyre contributing.
"I think what Bobbys fear is that hes going to become a bench player
thats going to play once a week. I think theres a range in there between
playing once a week and between playing seven days a week that I can
definitely see a role in Bobbys playing."
Its been reported that there is not a lot of interest for Abreu because
of his contract that will pay him $9 million this season. Any deal
involving Abreu would likely involve the Angels paying part of his
contract or taking a bad contract back in return.
On Wednesday, Scioscia pointed to Abreus second-half struggles last
season. After a solid June in which he hit .325, Abreu hit .179 in July
and .200 in August.
"If youre referring to Bobbys case, youre not about whether a guys
production diminishes or not, you have to look at what the guy can do."
Scioscia said. " Bobbys still is a very, very productive player in some
important areas. He still gives you a terrific at bat up there.
"If there are issues, his agent is going to work through them with
(Angels General Manager Jerry Dipoto)," Scioscia said. "Bobbys here and
hes going to help us win games."
