The Jaxson Dart era is here to stay for the New York Giants, leaving veteran quarterback Russell Wilson in the rearview mirror. Many pegged the latter as an all-too-obvious trade candidate immediately following his benching, and understandably so given his pedigree and cost-effective contract.
However, ESPN's Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler pushed back on Wilson being a logical bargaining chip in their latest league-wide intel dump. The insiders used the above-referenced logic as a counterargument, explaining how rerouting the one-time Super Bowl champion doesn't bolster the Giants' short- or long-term outlook.
Graziano and Fowler's takes on Wilson's murky future with the Giants compared to the public consensus are a true example of the glass-half-empty/full perspective.
