Russell Wilson could sign with the New York Jets.
The New York Jets hosted Russell Wilson for a visit and are considering him as an option to be Geno Smith's No. 2 quarterback next season, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic.
Wilson played for the New York Giants last season. He's an unrestricted free agent.
Wilson put up 831 passing yards, three passing touchdowns and three interceptions for the Giants last season in six games. He was benched for Jaxson Dart in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
The 37-year-old Wilson has played for the Seattle Seahawks, Denver Broncos, Pittsburgh Steelers and Giants. He has 46,966 passing yards, 353 passing touchdowns, 114 interceptions, 5,568 rushing yards and 31 rushing touchdowns in his career.
A 10-time Pro Bowler, Wilson won Super Bowl XLVIII with the Seahawks against the Broncos.
The Jets' offense was a walking disaster in 2025. They were 29th in the NFL in points per game and 32nd in passing yards.
New York's new OC is Frank Reich, as Tanner Engstrand was fired after one season.
The Jets went 3-14 in 2025 in Year 1 of the Aaron Glenn era and started three QBs: Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor and Brady Cook. The three QBs combined for 2,777 passing yards and 14 touchdown passes.
New York acquired Smith from the Las Vegas Raiders this offseason. In his first stint with the Jets, Smith went 12-18 as a starter. He threw for 5,962 yards, 28 touchdowns and 36 interceptions. It wasn't pretty.
However, Smith is older and wiser now and believes he's going to prove his critics in New York wrong.
"I just felt like I was back where I belonged, man. It felt special," Smith said. "When I was drafted there, my goal was to play my entire career for the Jets and one day retire as a Jet. And although it didn't go exactly as planned, somehow, some way we got back here and I'm eager to make things right if I can."
Smith enters next season with 22,168 passing yards, 124 passing touchdowns and 89 career interceptions in the NFL. His starting record is 42-56-0.
