Russell Wilson Not the Only Leader in Giants Clubhouse

Friday, June 27, 8:10 PM

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. said that quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston have been sharing leadership duties this offseason in the team's clubhouse. "I wouldn't say leader of the pack because Jameis and Russ, they both have a really good dynamic to where they both respect each other," Tracy said. "They both allow each other to lead in their own way, whatever it may be. If Jameis wants to say something, Russ is not gonna come and say this is how it is. He'll let Jameis talk and lead his own way." It could make for some awkward situations in 2025 if Wilson struggles at the position, but for now, nobody should be reading too much into it. Wilson, 36, is fully expected to be the starter in Week 1, but if he falters, both Winston and rookie first-rounder Jaxon Dart could make starts by the end of the year. At best, Wilson will be a low-end QB2 in fantasy as he nears the end of his career.

Spencer Rattler Looks Comfortable in OTA Practice

Friday, May 23, 12:31 PM

The New Orleans Times-Picayune's Matthew Paras reports that New Orleans Saints second-year quarterback Spencer Rattler looked very comfortable during the team's OTA practice on Thursday, and you could tell that he has a year under his belt. Meanwhile, rookie second-rounder Tyler Shough was a little more hesitant, although he shined on a deep ball to receiver Rashid Shaheed down the sideline. Everyone is already expecting Shough to win the QB competition in New Orleans after the sudden retirement of Derek Carr this offseason, but the 24-year-old Rattler isn't going to go down with a fight in an open competition this spring and summer. Rattler completed just 57% of his passes for 1,317 yards, four touchdowns and five interceptions in seven games in 2024 as a rookie, but he has the experience edge and could get the nod if Shough isn't quite ready to start in Week 1 this fall.
