Overview
- New York turned to rookie Jaxson Dart after an 0-3 start, moving Russell Wilson to backup.
- NFL Network reports Wilson is expected to draw trade interest ahead of the Nov. 4 deadline.
- His one-year, $10.5 million deal includes an $8 million signing bonus, leaving an acquiring club responsible only for a fraction of his remaining salary.
- Wilson’s availability adds a lower-cost alternative that could undercut Atlanta’s efforts to move Kirk Cousins, whose contract carries guarantees and a no-trade clause, according to reports.
- With veteran Jameis Winston also on the roster, the Giants have cover at backup as they field inquiries on Wilson.
