Giants name Jaxson Dart starting QB: What's next for Russell Wilson in New York?

Russell Wilson is cooking, no more. The New York Giants pulled the veteran quarterback out of the proverbial kitchen and have named rookie Jaxson Dart their starter going forward. This comes on the heels of Wilson and the Giants falling to 0-3 on the season with their latest loss against the Kansas City Chiefs, seeing the offense muster single-digit points for the second time this season.



Wilson signed a one-year, $10.5 million deal this offseason and was supposed to hold down the fort as Dart, the 25th pick in the 2025 NFL Draft , developed in the shadows. Even amid Dart 's tremendous preseason, Daboll held first with Wilson as the team's starter. That faith deteriorated quickly with Wilson , who completed 59.1% of his passes and registered a 78.5 passer rating through three weeks (both on pace to be career lows). That was all coach Brian Daboll needed to see to push the eject button on Wilson. So what's next?

As noted by CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones , the immediate future for Wilson with the Giants isn't clear, but Jones adds that "he could be a trade piece for a quarterback-needy team ahead of the Nov. 4 trade deadline."
