New Giants QB Wilson: ‘I expect to be the starter’

The New York Giants introduced newly signed quarterback Russell Wilson on Wednesday, who reportedly agreed to a one-year deal worth up to US$2.1 million with incentives.

Wilson is one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in the era. After a 10-time Pro Bowl selection and Super Bowl champion (XLVIII).

The veteran quarterback will look to re-energize the Giants, who are coming off a 6-11 campaign, a record that doesn’t seem to concern Wilson.

“I love adversity. I love challenges. I love the underdog mentality,” Wilson told reporters on Wednesday. “Maybe it’s going 5-foot-11 and people telling you you can’t do something... Being in New York, it’s an exciting place to play. It’s a place that knows to win, it’s a place that wants to win and has won in the past.”
