Russell Wilson Not Phased by Bright Lights in New York

2 weeks ago

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson noted on the 7 PM in Brooklyn with Carmelo Anthony podcast that he is relishing the chance to play with the team in New York. "I don't mind the lights. I don't mind that part of it," said the former Seattle Seahawk. He was also very excited about the cast of athletes he'll share the field with, and said that head coach Brian Daboll influenced his decision to land with the Giants. "Here with Dabes, I'm excited because his offensive wizardry is really special. Him and (offensive coordinator Mike) Kafka...people that I know and people that I believe in. I'm excited about the opportunity." There's no guarantee the 36-year-old starts for New York the entire season with fellow veteran signal-caller Jameis Winston and rookie Jaxson Dart waiting in the wings. However, he's undoubtedly a more talented QB than any of their options from 2024. Wilson could have some decent streaming appeal this season as long as he has the starting gig.
