2025 Fantasy Outlook
After wearing out his welcome in Denver, Wilson signed a one-year deal with the Steelers last offseason. He wasn’t run out of town this time, but he didn’t do enough to be asked back either. Wilson signed another one-year deal this offseason, this time with the Giants, confirming that he's in the journeyman portion of his career. After missing the first six games of last season with a calf injury, Wilson posted a 12:3 TD:INT in his first seven games while averaging 8.4 YPA. But he threw just four TDs in the last four games, with 5.7 YPA as the Steelers went 0-4 to back into the playoffs. Wilson got the ball out quicker than usual, which freed him from his usual dependence on RB dump-offs under duress and increased his YPA to 7.4 (15th). He's still an excellent deep thrower -- 45.5 completion percentage on attempts of 20-plus yards (2nd), 111.0 passer rating (4th) -- but prorating his overall numbers to a full season would only put him in the QB15 range, about the same as the previous three years. In New York, he’s keeping the seat warm for 25th overall pick Jaxson Dart. Even if Wilson keeps the starting job all season, he doesn’t have much upside at age 36, with only one true playmaker to target in Malik Nabers. Read Past Outlooks

Remains entrenched atop depth chart
Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Thursday that Wilson will take the team's first-team reps to begin OTAs and is expected to start Week 1, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wilson remains in relatively clear position to kick off the 2025 regular season under center for New York after inking a one-year, $10.5 million contract with the team in March. The Giants' offseason approach is shaping up to be far less of a quarterback competition than the selection of Jaxon Dart in the first round of April's draft, at 25th overall, might indicate. Carroll speculates that Wilson's one-year deal positions him as a clear bridge quarterback for 2025, while Jameis Winston's two-year contract gives New York another established veteran as starter insurance for 2025 and a player capable of acting as either competition or a backup for Dart down the line. If Wilson is able to capably pilot Daboll's offense and keep New York relatively competitive, at least in line with expectations, he figures to retain a strong grip on the No. 1 gig, but it also wouldn't take more than a handful of early-season duds for pressure to mount.

Wilson’s second year in Denver went better than the first but not well enough to avoid getting benched late in the season and then released in March with a record $85 million dead-cap charge. He quickly signed with the Steelers, who later traded for Justin Fields. Wilson is in “pole position” to start, according to coach Mike Tomlin, and the 35-year-old would help himself if he just got the ball out quicker. Only Fields (3.23) took longer to throw than Wilson’s 3.06-second average last year, as he, again, stubbornly waited for downfield opportunities before repeatedly taking sacks or settling for check downs. Wilson ranked third in the NFL with 12.6 percent of his attempts traveling at least 20 yards and second with 26.2 percent at or behind the line of scrimmage, leading the league in RB screens for the second consecutive year. It amounted to a 6.9 YPA (22nd) on a 7.1-yard average target depth (25th) -- both career lows. Perhaps in Pittsburgh he’ll stop hunting for home runs and be content with drive-moving completions -- he was second in completion percentage (65.5) on attempts of 10-19 yards last season but simply didn't have many of those passes. The Steelers have a pair of quality targets in WR George Pickens and TE Pat Freiermuth, but they otherwise seem to be counting on unimpressive Van Jefferson and/or third-round rookie Roman Wilson. Pittsburgh figures to be run-heavy anyway with new OC Arthur Smith taking over an offense featuring RBs Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren. It's a situation in which Wilson is unlikely to put up big fantasy numbers even if he stabilizes the team's offense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Takes first-team reps at OTAs
Wilson is taking most of the first-team reps at the Giants' OTAs, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Raanan reports Wilson took the majority of first-team reps at Wednesday's OTA session, the first open to the media this offseason. The Giants are now in Phase 3 of their offseason program, which gives Wilson his first opportunity to run 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 non-contact drills. Jameis Winston, rookie first-round pick Jaxson Dart and holdover Tommy DeVito followed behind Wilson at Wednesday's session, but the latter appears to be the presumptive favorite for starting duties at this point in the offseason.
