Russell Wilson<\/a> went from starting quarterback of the New York Giants to third string just a few weeks into the 2025 season, leaving many to question if the 10-time Pro Bowler decides to play next season.<\/p>\n

Wilson, 37, doesn\u2019t sound like he\u2019s mulling over his decision. He wants to play in 2026.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not blinking,” Wilson said, per SNY<\/a>. “I know [what] I\u2019m capable of. I think I showed that in Dallas, and I want to be able to do that again, you know, and just be ready to rock and roll, and be as healthy as possible and be ready to play ball.”<\/p>\n

Wilson signed a one-year, veteran minimum deal with the Giants this past offseason worth $10.5 million, which had tons of incentives if he were to play the entire season.<\/p>\n

That same offseason, the Giants traded back into the first round to select Jaxson Dart out of Ole Miss<\/a>, and he proved during training camp to have NFL-ready chops under center.<\/p>\n

Still, then-head coach Brian Daboll was steadfast in his decision to start Wilson despite Dart\u2019s success. But, after just three games, where the Giants went 0-3, a change was made.<\/p>\n

Daboll went with Dart in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers<\/a> at home, and the rookie defeated Justin Herbert and company to not only get his first career win, but cement himself as the team\u2019s starter moving forward.<\/p>\n

Even then, Wilson remained positive, <\/strong>saying in interviews after practice that he understands the direction of the team and wanted to help Dart develop and grow in his new role.<\/p>\n

In his three starts for the Giants, Wilson threw for 831 yards with three touchdowns to three interceptions, though all of those touchdowns came in a Week 2 overtime heartbreaker for New York. Over half of Wilson\u2019s passing yards also came in that game, throwing for 450 in the 40-37 loss.<\/p>\n

Wilson also said that he tore his hamstring during that game against the Cowboys.<\/p>\n

“I played that game, you know, I tore my hamstring on Friday in practice \u2013 the last play of practice. And I had a Grade 2 (tear). I couldn\u2019t tell anybody. I had to go and play on it just because I knew the circumstance, I had to play on it, no matter what,” Wilson explained.<\/p>\n

“I actually ended up going to the Dallas Mavericks\u2019 facility, training. And you know, just kept it quiet, just trying to get treatment on it and just knowing that I probably couldn\u2019t run from the goal line to the 10-yard line if I wanted to, but I feel like\u2026 I got to play this game.”<\/p>\n

It will be interesting to see if Wilson will land anywhere, and better yet, if a team is willing to try him out as a starter again.<\/p>\n
