Russell Wilson set to meet with Giants as QB intrigue grows
NY Post
It’s about to get DangeRuss in New York.
Veteran free agent quarterback Russell Wilson is slated to fly into town to meet with the Giants at their facility Friday about their current needs under center, The Post confirmed.
That assumes he makes it, however, as the 36-year-old will meet with the Browns in Cleveland on Thursday, per ESPN.
Wilson officially hit the free agent market at 4 p.m. on Wednesday after going 6-5 with the Steelers last season.
He threw for 2,482 yards with 16 touchdowns and five interceptions in Pittsburgh, taking over the starting role from Justin Fields after a training camp injury sidelined him to open the season.
A 10-time Pro Bowler and 2014 Super Bowl champion, Wilson seemingly satisfies some of the requirements as a veteran bridge QB for the Giants, who are likely trying to find a long-term answer for the position at the 2025 NFL Draft in April.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp.
