NFL Rumors: Giants Will Be 'Poking Around' At Veteran QB Market After Winston Contract

Jameis Winston may not be the only free-agent quarterback the New York Giants bring in this offseason.

On the latest episode of the Scoop City podcast (starts at 8:20 mark), The Athletic's Dianna Russini said the Giants will be "poking around" the veteran market for another quarterback.

Fox Sports' Jordan Schultz reported on Friday that Winston agreed to a two-year, $8 million deal with New York.

The Giants haven't given up on their pursuit of Aaron Rodgers. ESPN's Jordan Raanan reported on Monday they are "still waiting" for the four-time MVP to make a decision.

Rodgers' focus seems to be more on the Pittsburgh Steelers at the moment. He had a meeting with team officials last week, but left their facilities without signing a deal.

Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer noted Steelers officials seemed to think Rodgers would also have a similar meeting with the Giants at some point in an effort to "to get a vibe for their building, and what head coach Brian Daboll and GM Joe Schoen have built."

There's no indication at this point that Rodgers is close to making a decision. While the Giants continue to wait for him, they have also been keeping an eye on Russell Wilson and Joe Flacco as potential options.

The Giants could in theory come out of free agency and the draft with three quarterbacks. Tommy DeVito was the only signal-caller on their roster before they agreed to a deal with Winston.

DeVito is only set to earn $1 million in 2025, so it wouldn't be difficult to move on if they found better depth.

There's also the possibility the Giants try to add Shedeur Sanders with the third pick in the draft, but there's growing buzz he could end up going to the Cleveland Browns at No. 2 overall.

Whatever the quarterback room looks like in Week 1 of the regular season, the Giants had to prioritize the position this offseason. They may not end up with a franchise player at that spot, but it should look better than the group that ended last season with DeVito and Drew Lock starting games after Daniel Jones was released.
