Russell Wilson Posts First Message As Giants’ Quarterback
Russell Wilson is making the information official. Hours after he reportedly agreed to a one-year cope with the New York Giants, cementing his departure from the Pittsburgh Steelers, Wilson took to Twitter to share his first message together with his new workforce.

A yr after visiting however not signing with New York, he inked a one-year deal price as much as $21 million to presumably be the Giants’ beginning quarterback. He signed even earlier than Aaron Rodgers formally made his determination, although itself is one other clue the Giants anticipated Rodgers to signal elsewhere. It leaves Pittsburgh as probably the most logical, and maybe solely, place for him to signal.
Regardless of his lengthy profession, Wilson has performed simply two video games within the Giants’ stadium. Each have been victories; 23-0 in 2013 and 24-7 in 2017. Wilson performed nicely in each, combining to throw 4 touchdowns to only one interception. In his second Steelers’ begin, Wilson confronted the Giants in 2024, main one other victory.
Wilson may even get to face his former former workforce in 2025 when the Giants journey to Denver and face the Broncos in the course of the common season.

His subsequent media session can be one price watching. As he at all times does, Wilson will certainly say the proper issues. He had an excellent expertise in Pittsburgh, there’s no ill-will, and he’s excited for his subsequent chapter in New York. However for a participant who wished to return to the Steelers and a workforce that was publicly open to his return, even when that clearly wasn’t the case, commentary from either side of what occurred the previous three months is a headline ready to be written.
