The New York Giants solved the mystery of what uniform number newly signed quarterback Russell Wilson will wear this season on Wednesday.
Uniform No. 3 was worn last season by cornerback Deonte Banks, who agreed to surrender the number to the 10-time Pro Bowl, former Super Bowl champion who will be the Giants' starting quarterback this season.
It will be the third number worn by Banks in as many years as a Giant. As a rookie in 2023, Banks wore No. 25.
There is no word on what compensation Banks will receive for the accommodation, if any, but he will simply slide one number up the numerical roster this year to No.
