Russell Wilson Switches Agents, Vows to Keep Playing as Free Agency Nears

The change signals preparation for a new landing spot, with the Giants turning to Jaxson Dart.

Overview

  • NFLPA records show Wilson has moved from longtime agent Mark Rodgers to David Mulugheta of Athletes First ahead of March free agency.
  • Wilson said he intends to play in 2026, declaring he is 100% healthy and open to either a starting job or a veteran backup role.
  • He finished the 2025 season with six appearances and three starts for the Giants, completing 58.0% of passes for 831 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions in an 0-3 starting record.
  • Wilson revealed he had a Grade 2 hamstring tear before Week 2 against Dallas, when he threw for 450 yards and three touchdowns in an overtime loss, and he says the injury has healed.
  • ESPN reports the Giants plan to proceed with Jaxson Dart as starter and Jameis Winston as backup, making a Wilson return unlikely as he enters the open market.
