Wilson, 36, signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers last year after 2 previous seasons in Denver. He was an 11-game starter after missing time with an injury, with the Steelers going 6-5 in those starts. Wilson was 214-of-336 passing (63.7% complete) for 2,482 yards, 16 touchdowns and 5 interceptions.
The Giants recently added another veteran QB with starting experience, Jameis Winston. These moves come ahead of the NFL Draft.
New York holds the No. 3 overall pick. With a high pick and uncertain future at QB, there was plenty of speculation about how that first-round pick would be used. NFL fans everywhere will be following closely to see if the Giants add a 3rd QB to the room.
