The New York Giants are on the hunt for a quarterback, but don’t expect Aaron Rodgers to be part of their plans. According to reports, Rodgers signing with the Giants is “unlikely,” despite the team looking for a veteran QB to pair with their third overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft.
Instead, the Giants have already signed Jameis Winston to a two-year, $8 million deal. But don’t be fooled—Winston is reportedly being brought in as a backup, which means the team is still in the market for a starting QB.
So, where does that leave Rodgers? The four-time MVP is still figuring out his next move, but he’s been linked to both the Minnesota Vikings and the Pittsburgh Steelers. While he’s reportedly more interested in Minnesota, the Vikings seem committed to giving rookie JJ McCarthy a shot. Meanwhile, rumors suggest that Rodgers may already have the framework of a deal in place with the Steelers.
With Rodgers out of the picture, who are the Giants eyeing? Enter Russell Wilson. Despite signing Winston, New York is still considering Wilson, and he seems to view the Giants as a more attractive option than the Steelers. If Wilson lands in New York, he’d likely start over Winston in Week 1.
Regardless of who they sign, the Giants are expected to draft a rookie QB, meaning whoever comes in as a veteran might not be a long-term solution. One thing is clear: Rodgers won’t be wearing a Giants jersey anytime soon.
