NFL quarterback Russell Wilson is reportedly signing with the New York Giants for one year.
BetOnline had him as an EVEN odds favorite to land there throughout the month of March.
The agreement is a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, including $10.5 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday.
The 10-time Pro Bowl selection had been in discussions with the Giants, Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers, but is opting for New York, where he won Super Bowl XLVIII in MetLife Stadium as a member of the Seattle Seahawks.
The agreement between Wilson and the Giants eliminates New York as a potential option this season for Aaron Rodgers, sources told Schefter.
It also leaves Rodgers and the Steelers -- Wilson's former team -- in a position to work out their own agreement, if the quarterback decides he wants to play this season.
The Giants quarterbacks currently consist of Wilson, Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito.
