The New York Giants have their new starting quarterback.

Russell Wilson is signing a one-year, $10.5 million deal with New York, which could reach $21 million with incentives.

Wilson will now join and lead a quarterback room that includes newly signed Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito.

Wilson is heading to New York after a season with the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he also signed a one-year deal.

Over his tenure with the Seattle Seahawks (2012-2021), Wilson won a Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium, where he’ll now call home and earned nine Pro Bowl Selections.

Now headed to his fourth team, Wilson battled through a calf injury last summer to start 11 games for the Steelers last season. He began the season on a high but struggled toward the end, finishing with a 6-5 record as a starter, 225.6 yards passing per game, 16 touchdowns, and five interceptions.

Wilson was rumored to be a potential option for the Giants, Cleveland Browns and Steelers.
