Russell Wilson Attends Knicks Game After Giants Contract, Throws Pass to Fans on Video

Russell Wilson is settling in nicely in his new city.

Wilson, who signed a one-year, $10.5 million contract with the New York Giants on Tuesday, was in attendance for the New York Knicks' matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday.

He gave fans a taste of what's to come, throwing an autographed football to a fan in the stands.

Wilson joined the Giants following a one-year stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers that saw him throw for 2,482 yards and 16 touchdowns in 11 games, earning his first Pro Bowl nod since 2021. It was far from his best season, but it was enough to take the Steelers to the playoffs.

Now in New York, Wilson will look to help right the ship after years of struggle for the Giants.

While the team's plans likely aren't cut-and-dry just yet, Wilson said at his introductory press conference that he expects to start under season.

"Yeah, I expect to be the starter and come in here and be ready to rock and roll every day," Wilson said. "I think this team's really looking for somebody to lead them in every way."

He was well received by Knicks fans on Wednesday and will look to have a similar reception in MetLife Stadium this fall.
