However, they have yet to address their biggest issue this offseason. And that is who will be their starting quarterback this year. The team has been linked to future Hall of Famers Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson. Reports suggest the Green Bay Packers legend is their top choice. But the four-time MVP seems to be waiting to see if the Minnesota Vikings will make an offer.
That means the Seattle Seahawks great could be their new No. 1 option. And a new report from ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler reveals how seriously the 10-time Pro Bowler takes the 3-14 team.
Russell Wilson taking a move to the New York Giants very seriously

During a new edition of Sportscenter this week, Fowler claimed that Wilson has actually viewed the New York Giants as “a viable option for a while now [h/t Bleacher Report].”
For many NFL pundits, the belief has been that both Rodgers and Wilson would likely prefer to sign with either the Vikings or Steelers in free agency. As opposed to being the starting QB of a franchise trying to have their first winning season in three years. However, Wilson showed interest in joining New York when he was a free agent this time last year.
