Jameis Winston was officially signed by the New York Giants with a two-year, $8 million contract. Excited to join the team, Winston aims to compete for the starting quarterback position alongside veteran Russell Wilson. He acknowledges the importance of a backup quarterback role, given the Giants’ recent struggles with injuries at the position. Winston believes the Giants are closer to contention than their previous 3-14 record suggests, noting the offensive potential and impressive defensive additions.

Winston emphasized the importance of competition and mentorship within the quarterback room, expressing confidence in the team's roster. General manager Joe Schoen echoed this sentiment, praising Winston's experience and leadership qualities. While the team plans to seek further depth in the upcoming draft, they are optimistic about their current quarterback situation heading into the season.
