Giants' trade buzz just turned Jameis Winston into deadline dilemma

Ever since Jaxson Dart took over as the starting quarterback of the New York Giants, Jameis Winston has been QB3 on the depth chart, which is putting his time with the franchise in jeopardy. The rumor mill has been swirling, but Minnesota is emerging as a probable landing spot for the former No. 1 pick.

After Carson Wentz underwent shoulder surgery that ended his 2025 season, the Vikings are looking to add a seasoned backup behind J.J. McCarthy. Not only is Famous Jameis the perfect mentor for a young quarterback like McCarthy, he is a viable starter if his ankle issues persist.
