Super Bowl champion Russell Wilson has a new team to play for in the 2025 season after agreeing to a brand new one-year deal on Tuesday evening.

Wilson, the 36-year-old quarterback, inked a one-year, $21million deal with the New York Giants.

Last season, he helped lead the Pittsburgh Steelers to yet another playoff appearance. While he was left looking for a new team after that season ended, it appears that wasn’t exactly what Wilson wanted.

Wilson’s deal includes $10.5m guaranteed. This also likely ends New York’s rumored pursuit of Aaron Rodgers.

Wilson, now 36, began his NFL career with the Seahawks back in 2012 and he led Seattle to victory in Super Bowl XLVIII – at MetLife Stadium, the home of the Giants. ‘Been here before… can’t wait to do it again,’ Wilson wrote on X alongside a picture of MetLife.

The quarterback joined the Denver Broncos in 2022 before moving to the Steelers for the 2024 season. Wilson led Pittsburgh to the playoffs, where they were beaten by the Ravens.

Following the end of his deal, Wilson became a free agent. Earlier on Tuesday, reports claimed that the Giants were ‘less likely’ to target Wilson following their deal for Winston.

Rodgers, meanwhile, met with the Steelers in Pittsburgh last week.

The 41-year-old has been on the lookout for a new team after it was confirmed that the New York Jets were moving on from the quarterback after two miserable years.

Wilson’s former Pittsburgh teammate Justin Fields has joined the Jets to replace Rodgers.
