Rodgers will be scheduled to be a free agent after the New York Jets announced earlier this month that they would move from the field marshal after two seasons. Sam Darnold is also expected to be among the options, he said a source, after his last year with the Minnesota Vikings. The giants had an interest in Darnold last season as a free agent before landing in Minnesota. New York signed Drew Lock to be his backup in a one -year agreement worth $ 5 million guaranteed.
The winner of the Super Bowl, Russell Wilson, also considered New York among his options at the beginning of this low season. Meanwhile, the giants are currently on the way to having the agent free of exclusive rights Tommy Devito as the only Quarterback in the list. The team has selection No. 3 in the NFL draft, but general manager Joe Schoen said this week at the NFL Scouting combines that “would look for each rock” to add a franchise field marshal.
Anyway, giants want to add a veteran in free agency that can serve as a mentor and/or a reliable option if they cannot obtain their future signal call in the draft.
“In theory, yes, you take the rookie field marshal, they are in the rookie agreement for five years. Where we are in terms of the salary cap, you can build around them. You must make sure that one of those guys will be there or even are in the draft,” said Schoen. “Having a veterinarian instead: I have told you this before, where when they enter the day of the Draft, they could go play a game. Will your team be as good as they want?
The search for the giants now seems to include Rodgers, an NFL MVP four times of 41 years whose first New York race produced a 6-12 record as head of the jets, a tendon and tension of Achilles torn in the entire jet franchise.
Jets are likely to release Rodgers with a designation after June. To do that, they must take it to the list until March 12, the beginning of the year of League 2025.
The giants were among the teams to meet with Stafford during the past week about the contract parameters, but the Rams announced on Friday that they had agreed to a restructured contract that keeps quarterback in Los Angeles.
