Russell Wilson Signs $21M Deal With The New York Giants – Ciara Reacts

Russell Wilson Is Headed to the Big Apple

The New York Giants are officially shaking things up at quarterback—Super Bowl champ Russell Wilson just signed a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, with $10.5 million guaranteed.

After weighing offers from the Steelers and Browns, Russ is returning to the same MetLife Stadium where he hoisted the Lombardi

Trophy with the Seahawks in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Now, he’s back in blue—only this time, it’s Giants blue—and ready to lead the huddle as the expected starter.

The Giants’ QB Room Just Got Juicy

Wilson won’t be alone.

The Giants also added Jameis Winston (2 years, $8 million), and Tommy DeVito is still in the mix after playing in 12 games over the last two seasons.

Let’s be real—these aren’t long-term deals.

This move gives New York veteran leadership now, while keeping the door wide open to draft their QB of the future.

And with the No. 3 overall pick, don’t be surprised if they do just that.

Wilson’s Journey Back To New York

This move has been a long time coming.

Word is Wilson initiated a meeting with the Giants last offseason, but the team stuck with Daniel Jones for one last shot.

That ship has sailed.

Wilson spent last season in Pittsburgh where he started strong—going 6-1 after taking over in Week 7—but the Steelers ended the season on a five-game losing streak.

Despite the stumble, Wilson still finished with a respectable 16 touchdowns and 63.7% completion rate.

Before that, we saw the Denver chapter (we’ll call it “complicated”), and of course, his legendary run with the Seahawks, where he made nine straight playoff appearances and threw 350 career TDs.

What’s Next For The G-Men?

Wilson gives the Giants a seasoned starter for 2025—but don’t rule out a rookie QB landing in the Big Apple.

This move buys time, adds competition, and signals one thing loud and clear: New York is serious about finding their next franchise QB.

And with Aaron Rodgers still figuring out his next move, this officially takes the Giants off the board.

Could the Steelers double back for Rodgers? We’ll be watching.
