Schefter: Russell Wilson Met With Giants, Plans To Meet Other Teams After Steelers

Thursday morning was the first we heard of interest between free agent QB Russell Wilson and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette broke the story and included in there that he had at least one other suitor. According to Adam Schefter on X, that suitor could be the New York Giants.

The reports broke today of his travelling to Pittsburgh because he was spotted at the Newark airport. It would appear that wasn’t just for a connecting flight, but to talk to another team that has a quarterback opening.

Wilson was released by the Denver Broncos and given permission to start seeking his new NFL home earlier than the start of free agency.
