Russell Wilson came to the Giants to get the ball in the hands of Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton and Wan’Dale Robinson.
Not to hold the hand of Shedeur Sanders. Or Jaxson Dart. Or Jalen Milroe.
Wilson made it clear in his introductory news conference Wednesday that his focus is on winning games in 2025 and reviving head coach Brian Daboll’s bottom-ranking offense — not serving as a mentor to whatever rookie quarterback the Giants add via the NFL Draft.
“You always handle yourself first,” Wilson said. “You always get yourself prepared at the highest level. From leading in that sense, everybody else grows with you. They learn from you. They see your practice habits. They see your mental habits and your approach every day. I’m excited about the opportunity to lead not just the quarterback room, but the locker room in every way.”
