Free agent quarterback Russell Wilson is deciding between signing as a backup with the New York Jets and taking a television analyst position ahead of the 2026 NFL season. The 14-year veteran met with the Jets last week and described the discussion as positive. He spoke publicly on Wednesday about his choices.
Wilson told The New York Post that the Jets made him an offer and that he is evaluating the best path forward. He emphasized that he remains confident in his ability to perform at a high level on the field while also noting strong opportunities in broadcasting. Wilson previously started the 2025 season with the New York Giants before being benched after an 0-3 record.
