For those who keep their ears open to the sports scene, you have noticed that over the past few weeks, rumors have begun to spread regarding New York Giants quarterback Russel Wilson. Rumors say that the New York Giants are open to trade opportunities for Russel Wilson.
Rumors have emerged around the time that the Giants have benched the veteran player, Russel Wilson, for rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart. Russel was benched due to his poor performance, scoring only three touchdowns while having his throws intercepted three times and losing three of the four games the Giants have played. This overall negative showing has led to the fans booing Russell and his benching in favor of the new talent.
Fan reception of Russel Wilson has not been great, booing the man during a match against the Kansas City Chiefs and making their disapproval known online. Despite the negative opinion of him from the fans, Russel Wilson has stated that he is still positive about his place with the New York Giants, and he loves to be part of the organization.
Russel Wilson has said, despite being benched in favor of a rookie quarterback, that he has not given up on his team or this season. However, it is uncertain if he will keep his position on the team after the Giants win their first game of the season, after Russel is benched. Unless Russel can manage to turn his record around, being traded off the team might be in his future.
Currently, the New York Giants have not made or sought out any offers regarding the trading of Russel Wilson. However, they have made it known that they are open to offers from other teams.
