Outlook: Russell Wilson, now 36 and turning 37 in November, signed a one-year, $21 million deal with the Giants in March 2025, positioning him as the favorite to start. His 2024 performance with the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he averaged 19.6 fantasy points per start across 11 games, shows he can still manage games. He completed 63.7% of his passes for 2,482 yards, 16 TDs, and 5 INTs. However, his lack of rushing upside (just five rushing TDs over the past three years) limits his once exceptional fantasy ceiling, especially in an offense that ranked near the bottom of the league this past season and didn't make many significant changes.

The Giants' quarterback room is crowded, with Jameis Winston and rookie Jaxson Dart adding competition. Wilson's deep-ball efficiency benefits receivers like Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton, but his age and lack of mobility make him a QB3 in fantasy drafts, potentially useful as a bye week fill-in during favorable matchups. Given the Giants' offensive line struggles and middling supporting cast his fantasy value is capped, making him a player who will probably go undrafted in many traditional seasonal leagues.
