Giants to sign QB Russell Wilson to one-year deal

Adam Schefter

3 hours ago

The Giants and Super Bowl-winning QB Russell Wilson reached agreement today on a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, including $10.5 million guaranteed.
The 10-time Pro-Bowl selection had been in discussions with the Giants, Browns, and Steelers, but is opting for New York, where Wilson won Super Bowl XLVIII in MetLife Stadium. Now, Wilson is returning there as the Giants’ projected starting QB.

Related Players: Jameis Winston, Tommy DeVito

Fantasy Impact:

We would have loved to see Winston airing it out to Malik Nabers, but the Giants have made a stand to bring Wilson on board. We'll have to see if they still make a move for a first-round option during the NFL Draft, but as it stands, no Giants QB is worth redraft consideration.

Jets sign QB Justin Fields to two-year, $40M deal

The Jets are signing QB Justin Fields, as Gang Green gets a new starter. Fields says goodbye to Pittsburgh after 1 year.

He gets a 2-year deal worth $40M with $30M guaranteed in deal.

Related Players: Russell Wilson, Tyrod Taylor

Fantasy Impact:

We'll see if this pushes Pittsburgh to bring Wilson back, but for now, New York will move forward with a 26-year-old in a new home. The Jets will likely look to move the ball on the ground as much as possible, but it's not as if that's not what the Steelers were doing in '24. A full year as a starter puts Fields in legitimate QB1 conversation, with Garrett Wilson contributing to his floor.

Steelers rolling with Russell Wilson to start Week 7, Justin Fields expected to see action

The Steelers will start Russell Wilson at quarterback Sunday against the Jets but both he and Justin Fields are expected to play.

Fantasy Impact:

Wilson is fully healthy from his preseason calf injury, so Fields was just keeping the seat warm until Wilson came back. The Steelers are expected to have a package of plays for Fields, who led the Steelers to a 4-2 start. Of note, if Fields plays 51 percent of the offensive snaps, the Steelers will send a 4th-round pick to the Bears instead of a 6th.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson looks set to start Week 7

Sources: The Steelers plan to give Russell Wilson first-team reps in practice this week, putting him in line to make his season debut.

Fantasy Impact:

Russ will get the start against the Jets on Sunday night it looks like. Pittsburgh is 4-2 with Fields, but with Wilson’s calf now fully healed it looks like the team is going to make a change. This could mean a better news for the Pittsburgh WRs as Wilson should throw the ball more vs. Fields escaping the pocket and running.
