Overview

  • Wilson signed a one-year contract, locked in the Week 1 starting role and has spearheaded the Giants’ summer workouts in San Diego.
  • He organized a San Diego team-building excursion and joint drills with key playmakers such as Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton to jump-start on-field chemistry.
  • At 36, he credits his daily prehab routine with PT Manuel and the INDIBA recovery device for preserving his durability.
  • First-round pick Jaxson Dart split time between those Giants drills and hosting a youth quarterback camp in Oxford as his pro preparation continues.
  • Analysts including Mike Florio and former lineman Marshall Newhouse warn that Wilson’s job security hinges on protecting the ball behind a porous offensive line and on Dart’s looming readiness.
