Overview
- Giants coach Brian Daboll named rookie Jaxson Dart the starter after an 0-3 opening that included Wilson’s two-interception, zero-touchdown outing in a 22-9 loss to the Chiefs.
- On Amazon’s Thursday Night Football, Gonzalez said Wilson has “played himself out” of Canton, and Sherman agreed while pointing to Wilson’s success with Seattle’s Legion of Boom.
- Sherman cited Wilson’s 17-27 mark as a starter since leaving the Seahawks as evidence his late-career slide has damaged his résumé.
- Robert Griffin III pushed back on the broadcast critiques, saying the NFL legends did Wilson “so dirty” and arguing the quarterback deserves more respect.
- Wilson told reporters he is “not done,” will not seek a trade, and intends to mentor Dart, who is set for his first NFL start against the Chargers at MetLife Stadium.
