New York Giants News

The New York Giants have re-signed linebacker Ty Summers to an undisclosed contract. Summers spent 2024 with the Giants -- his third team -- appearing in 16 games for the squad. Though the TCU product was mainly a special-teamer (61.4% of the team's snaps), he garnered two starts at the end of the year and produced an 11-tackle effort. He's likely to serve as a depth/special teams asset for New York again in 2025. However, he was productive from Week 16 to Week 18 when he saw the field on defense (22 tackles), and it wouldn't be surprising to see him push for more playing time this upcoming season. Summers started just one game in his career otherwise -- in 2020 with Green Bay.

Former Arizona Cardinals linebacker Victor Dimukeje has signed a one-year, $1.33 million deal with the New York Giants. The 25-year-old spent the last four years with Arizona after the team selected him in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. Dimukeje has recorded 67 tackles, four sacks, two forced fumbles, and one pass defensed across his first four seasons. While he has chalked up just eight starts in his career, the Duke alum has played at least 65% of Arizona's special teams snaps since 2022. He'll provide the Giants with a depth piece and special teams contributor in 2025. Dimukeje joins teammates Chris Board and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles as new acquisitions in the Giants' linebacker room.

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson said he expects to be the team's starting QB in 2025 after agreeing to a one-year deal worth $10.5 million guaranteed on Tuesday. Wilson joins veteran Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito in the G-Men's quarterback room, although they could still add a rookie signal-caller in April's draft. The 36-year-old underwhelmed in his two seasons in Denver in 2022 and 2023 and then completed 63.7% of his 336 pass attempts for 2,482 yards, 16 touchdowns and five interceptions in 11 regular-season starts for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2024. The 10-time Pro Bowler and former Super Bowl champion is clearly past his prime, but he'll have some decent weapons in New York, most notably second-year wideout Malik Nabers. However, given how he's looked the last three years, Wilson is unlikely to be much more than a midrange QB2 in fantasy in 2025, at best.

The New York Giants have re-signed offensive lineman Aaron Stinnie to an undisclosed contract. Stinnie played 16 games for the team last year (three starts), garnering a 17.16% snap share. He spent most of his time at left guard. The Virginia native projects to backup teammate Jon Runyan (ankle), who ended the season with an ankle injury that forced him from the final four contests. New York has attempted to reinforce its offensive line this offseason, as Stinnie joins returning veteran Greg Van Roten and newly acquired offensive linemen Stone Forsythe and James Hudson III. Van Roten is the only Giants lineman to log 100% of the team's snaps a season ago.

The New York Giants and Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $21 million on Tuesday, including $10.5 million guaranteed, sources tell ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 10-time Pro Bowler had been in talks with the Giants, Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers but has chosen the G-Men, where he will be their projected starter heading into the 2025 season. The 36-year-old veteran had two underwhelming seasons for the Denver Broncos in 2022-23 before throwing for 2,482 yards, 16 touchdowns and five interceptions in 11 regular-season starts for Pittsburgh in 2024. Wilson got a late start last year due to a nagging calf injury. He initially gave the Steelers offense a spark but overall was mostly underwhelming. Russ will have one of the best young wideouts in the game to throw deep balls to in Malik Nabers, but he's unlikely to suddenly become an every-week QB1 in fantasy at this stage of his career. The Giants also added veteran Jameis Winston last week and could still take a QB with the third overall pick of April's NFL draft.

Free-agent quarterback Russell Wilson remains on the New York Giants' radar despite the fact that the team signed veteran QB Jameis Winston this week, according to multiple sources. Winston was specifically signed to be the backup signal-caller in New York (he received $4 million per year), so Wilson should not be ruled out. The sources also said the Giants technically are also still in the mix for free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers, but that it currently "seems unlikely" he'll go there. Even if the G-Men also sign Wilson, it won't rule them out from taking a rookie quarterback in this year's NFL draft -- the Giants have the No. 3 overall pick and have been rumored to be keen on trading up to No. 1 overall. The 36-year-old Wilson has visited both the Giants and Browns, and he could still be an option to re-sign with the Steelers if Rodgers decides to retire. Wilson could mesh nicely with Malik Nabers in New York, but he'd be a low-end QB2 in fantasy if he signs with the Giants.

Veteran free-agent wide receiver Zach Pascal is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the New York Giants on Saturday. Pascal will reunite with receivers coach Mike Groh from their days with the Indianapolis Colts. The 30-year-old veteran will head to the NFC East after catching just four of 15 targets for 19 yards and no touchdowns in 31 games (one start) with the Arizona Cardinals the last two years. He played in 17 games a year ago but wasn't targeted at all on offense and was primarily a special-teamer. In the Big Apple, Pascal will have an opportunity to compete for a depth role on offense, but he will most likely continue to fill in on special teams in 2025. He faces an uphill battle for fantasy value behind the likes of Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and the recently signed Lil'Jordan Humphrey.

The New York Giants and free-agent quarterback Jameis Winston are finalizing a two-year, $8 million deal on Friday that could be worth up to $16 million with incentives, multiple sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Winston now joins Tommy DeVito as the only quarterbacks on the Giants roster, but the G-Men are still fully expected to sign another veteran QB -- either Aaron Rodgers or Russell Wilson -- while also possibly taking a rookie QB with the third overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft. The 31-year-old Winston, the former first overall pick out of Florida State by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2015, famously led the league with 5,109 passing yards and also 30 interceptions in 2019 with the Bucs. He ended up playing in 12 games (seven starts) for the Browns in 2024 after Deshaun Watson's (Achilles) season-ending injury but was eventually benched after throwing 13 TDs and 12 picks. If Winston is starting in 2025, he'll be a turnover-prone, low-end QB2 in superflex leagues.

The New York Giants are signing former Denver Broncos wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. Humphrey joins a Giants team after spending the last two seasons in Denver, catching 44 total passes on 64 targets for 455 yards and four touchdowns. He was much more involved last year and set career-highs in receptions (31), targets (45) and receiving yards (293) while scoring once in 17 regular-season games (seven starts). The 26-year-old's best asset is his size (6-foot-4, 225 pounds), but he's unlikely to be much more than the team's No. 4 pass-catcher behind Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton. The only quarterback currently on New York's roster is Tommy DeVito, too. However, the addition of a big downfield threat like Humphrey could mean the G-Men are getting close to adding veteran QB Russell Wilson.

Per NFL media, free agent quarterback Jameis Winston is scheduled to meet with the New York Giants on Tuesday. New York is still searching for their next quarterback, and though a pending offer is out there for ex-New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers, they've continued to leave no stone unturned. Winston spent last season with the Cleveland Browns, appearing in 12 games (six starts), amassing 2,121 passing yards and a 13:12 TD:INT ratio. If we know one thing about the 31-year-old, he loves to sling the rock, routinely mixing in superb and questionable throws throughout his ten seasons. A former first-overall pick, the Florida State product is unlikely to be a long-term solution for the G-Men if he signs there. Still, New York currently holds quarterback Tommy DeVito on their roster and no other option at signal-caller. Winston's presence would be a boost for second-year wideout Malik Nabers. However, due to his lack of consistency, the veteran would not be a recommended fantasy option in drafts.

Free-agent quarterback Jameis Winston is scheduled to visit with the New York Giants on Tuesday, sources told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The Giants are waiting for a decision from future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers, but in the meantime, they are taking visits with Winston, Joe Flacco and Russell Wilson as fallback options. Even if the G-Men land Rodgers in free agency, it wouldn't be a surprise to see them take a rookie signal-caller at No. 3 overall in the upcoming NFL draft -- or even trade up to No. 1 overall for a young QB. The 31-year-old Winston, the former first overall pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2015 out of Florida State, initially gave the Cleveland Browns' offense a spark in 2024 after the season-ending injury to Deshaun Watson (Achilles). However, he was ultimately benched late in the year and remains a turnover machine.

ESPN's Field Yates reports that the New York Giants hosted free-agent quarterback Joe Flacco at their facilities on Thursday. Flacco started six games for the Indianapolis Colts in 2024, compiling 1,761 yards and a 12:7 TD:INT ratio in eight total appearances. The news comes as New York also plans to host QB Russell Wilson on Friday. With Tommy DeVito as the only signal-caller on the roster, the Giants are casting a wide net in search of their next quarterback, and Aaron Rodgers is also linked to the team. New York is in an interesting situation, considering they hold the third pick in this year's draft and could also select a field general there. The Giants require a few more pieces than just a QB to become competitive, though. Still, they are doing their due diligence, exploring every potential avenue to improve their roster from a season ago.

Following a visit with the Cleveland Browns on Thursday, free-agent quarterback Russell Wilson will visit with the New York Giants on Friday, a source told The Cleveland Plain Dealer's May Kay Cabot. Wilson is making the rounds but is essentially waiting for free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers to make his decision. Rodgers is deciding between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Giants, although the Minnesota Vikings could also jump into the fray. The 36-year-old veteran is still in the mix to re-sign with the Steelers after Justin Fields agreed to a two-year deal with the New York Jets, but a reunion will only be on the table if Rodgers doesn't choose Pittsburgh. If Rodgers doesn't land in Pittsburgh, a return to the Steel City would make the most sense for Wilson, especially after they acquired Pro Bowl receiver DK Metcalf last weekend. Wilson could pair nicely with receiver Malik Nabers in New York, but he wouldn't be much more than a midrange QB2, at best, in fantasy.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has signed a new extension with the organization on Monday. The two sides have agreed to a three-year, $36 million extension. Slayton has been with the Giants since being drafted in the fifth round by the team in 2019. The 28-year-old had a down year in 2024, but has posted four seasons with 700 receiving yards or more during his career. He's certainly not a top option, but is a nice asset to have alongside Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. Slayton will probably float around WR4 value, but that depends on what else the Giants add this offseason.

Former New Orleans Saints cornerback Paulson Adebo has agreed to terms with the New York Giants, according to ESPN. Adebo was originally a third-round pick by New Orleans out of Stanford in 2021 and has compiled 254 tackles (209 solo), two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, 10 interceptions, and 43 pass deflections in 62 career games. The 25-year-old was limited to just seven games last season. Adebo joins a G-Men defense led by defensive coordinator Shane Bowen.

The New York Giants officially re-signed quarterback Tommy DeVito on Saturday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. As things currently stand early in the offseason, DeVito is the only signal-caller that the Giants have under contract. That will surely change, though, with most folks believing that the Giants will not only sign or trade for a veteran QB but also draft one in April. The G-Men have the third overall selection in the 2025 NFL draft, with some of the belief that they could be aggressive in a potential trade up to the No. 1 overall spot with the Tennessee Titans to take Miami's Cam Ward. The Seahawks' trade of Geno Smith to the Raiders on Friday now puts Sam Darnold potentially in play as a veteran option for New York to pursue. DeVito, 26, made a little noise in six starts for the Giants in 2023 but played in only three games (two starts) last year and threw for 257 yards with no TDs or picks. He'll be a backup in 2025.

New York Giants exclusive-rights free-agent quarterback Tommy DeVito will sign his tender at some point this weekend, sources tell The Bergen Record's Art Stapleton. DeVito will be the only current QB on the Giants' roster with free agency kicking off next week. DeVito has played in 12 games, including eight starts, for the G-Men the last two seasons, but he's expected to continue in a depth role in 2025. The Giants swung and missed in their attempt to trade for Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford last week, but they are fully expected to sign or trade for a veteran signal-caller while also drafting a young QB in this year's draft. Reports suggest that they could be one of the most aggressive teams in trying to trade up for the No. 1 overall pick this year. The 26-year-old DeVito went 31-for-44 for 257 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in his three games (two starts) in 2024.

The New York Giants don't have any big contracts that they need to shed this offseason and are in a pretty healthy salary cap situation in 2025, but The Athletic's Dan Duggan suggests that kicker Graham Gano could still be a cap casualty as the Giants look to save a little extra money. The 37-year-old veteran is set to count $5.7 million against this year's cap and has missed 16 games because of injury the last two years. If the G-Men decide to cut the kicker, they'd save $3.2 million on the cap while creating $2.5 million in dead money. Gano injured his hamstring in Week 9 in 2024 and ended up playing in only 10 games, going 9-for-11 on his field-goal tries and 15-for-15 on extra points. He's been pretty reliable in his five seasons with New York, making 87.2% of his field goals, but the Giants wouldn't be blamed for looking to go younger at the position.

Wide receiver Darius Slayton is the New York Giants' top free agent this offseason, but ESPN New York's Jordan Raanan writes that Slayton isn't a candidate to be franchise-tagged with the number being well over $20 million in 2025. Raanan compares Slayton more to Darnell Mooney, who got $13 million per year in free agency last year. The 28-year-old has proven that he's not a No. 1 receiver type that would typically command a franchise tag, and the last time New York let him test the market, they ended up re-signing him on a two-year, $12 million deal after the 2022 season. In his sixth year with the G-Men in 2024, Slayton had just 39 catches on 71 targets for 573 yards (the second-lowest total of his career) and only two touchdowns in 16 games (13 starts). Given the Giants' uncertainty at the QB position, Slayton is probably better off going elsewhere in 2025.

The New York Giants signed wide receiver Montrell Washington and cornerback Nic Jones to Reserve/Futures deals on Friday. Washington was originally a fifth-round selection (162 overall) by the Denver Broncos in 2022 out of Samford. The 25-year-old pass-catcher made his NFL debut in his rookie year with Denver and caught four of his nine targets for only two yards while carrying the ball five times for 30 yards in 15 contests (one start). He hasn't appeared in an NFL game since and spent most of last season on the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad. Washington will now train with the Giants this offseason and attempt to make their 53-man roster as receiver depth out of training camp this summer. Jones, 23, was a seventh-rounder by the Chiefs in 2023 out of Ball State. He has four solo tackles in 10 NFL games since debuting with KC in 2023.
