Russell Wilson Joins Giants, Faces Broncos in 2025

Russell Wilson has signed a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, including $10.5 million guaranteed, with the New York Giants after stints with the Denver Broncos and Pittsburgh Steelers. The move marks Wilson's fourth team in five years, as he looks to revitalize his career following a challenging tenure in Denver, where he had a 11-19 record as a starter and faced criticism for his performance. The Giants previously signed Jameis Winston and hold the third overall pick in the upcoming draft, indicating a crowded quarterback situation. Wilson will have the opportunity to face the Broncos in 2025, the team that traded him away and is still on the hook for $32 million of his salary. His past success includes a Super Bowl victory with the Seattle Seahawks, and he aims to reclaim his status as a starting quarterback in the NFL. This signing allows the Giants to avoid rushing a rookie quarterback into a starting role while Wilson seeks to prove he can still compete at a high level.
