The New York Giants were named this week as a potential landing spot for a nine-time NFL Pro-Bowler.
On Wednesday, news broke that the Denver Broncos are benching quarterback Russell Wilson for the final two games of the 2023 season (for financial reasons).
According to The Athletic's Dianna Russini, Wilson is expecting to be cut by Denver this offseason.
The Giants were quickly named by CBS Sports as a potential landing spot for Wilson this offseason.
From CBS Sports: Wait, what? Yep, you read that right. New York just paid Daniel Jones big bucks last offseason, but he regressed in a big way before suffering a torn ACL amid a battered supporting cast. Tommy DeVito and Tyrod Taylor faring better in relief suggests Jones could be out of a job regardless of his rehab; he can be designated a post-June 1 release after the season without the Giants losing any money against the 2024 cap. And then there's the Big Apple connection for Wilson: Before the longtime Seahawks star was dealt to Denver, the Giants' current regime reportedly inquired about his availability.
I'm sure Wilson would love to play in New York and enjoy the bright lights of Manhattan on a weekly-basis. But I'm not sure it makes much sense for the Giants. New York needs a longterm answer at quarterback and Wilson, who just turned 35 last month and hasn't passed for over 4,000 yards since the 2020 season, isn't a longterm answer.
If the Giants want to make a change at quarterback, they need to look to the 2024 NFL Draft (the Giants currently have the No. 5 pick). That's a cheaper and more sensible option for New York.
