Russell Wilson is expected to return to the spotlight this Sunday. Meanwhile, the Giants are enjoying a much-needed break after a tough loss.
The veteran quarterback will join the CBS studio show “The NFL Today” in New York to analyze the pivotal Week 14 matchup.
The Giants find themselves on a bye week following a 33-15 defeat to the Patriots on Monday Night Football.
With a record of 2-11, they have already parted ways with head coach Brian Daboll and defensive coordinator Shane Bowen, which reflects yet another challenging season.
At 37, Wilson signed a one-year contract worth $10 million in the offseason, but it’s unlikely he’ll be part of the team’s long-term plans.
After starting three consecutive games, Wilson has been moved down to the second team, now behind promising rookie Jackson Dart.
When Dart got a concussion in Week 10 against the Bears, Jameis Winston stepped in as the starter.
Now that Dart is back, Wilson’s role has shifted to being the third-string emergency quarterback.
His CBS appearance could hint at his future, as Wilson approaches the end of his NFL journey.
While he may seek playing opportunities, landing another starting job might be tough.
Outside of football, Wilson seems to be thriving, balancing his Super Bowl-winning past with life alongside his wife, singer Ciara.
The couple has three kids: Sienna, Wynn, and Amora, plus they co-parent Ciara’s first child, Future Zahir, from her previous marriage.
Given Wilson’s focus on maintaining a positive public image, a career in media seems like a sensible next step.
On the CBS show, host James Brown is joined by analysts Matt Ryan, Nate Burleson, and Bill Cowher.
The channel will also be airing the pivotal clash between the Steelers and Ravens at 1:00 PM ET, a key game for the top position in the AFC North.
