EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Russell Wilson is coming to the New York Giants with the expectation that he will be the starting quarterback. It's no different than the approach he has taken every year of his illustrious career, which includes a Super Bowl victory and multiple Pro Bowls.
Wilson officially signed with the Giants on Wednesday, less than a week after the team added veteran quarterback Jameis Winston as a free agent. New York also re-signed Tommy DeVito earlier this offseason.
None of that has altered Wilson's mentality.
"Yeah, I expect to be the starter and come in here and be ready to rock and roll every day," Wilson said during an introductory news conference on Zoom when asked how the situation was laid out by the Giants.
