Retirement is \u0430lso \u0430n o\u0440tion for the 41-ye\u0430r-old, but if does elect to \u0440l\u0430y \u2013 \u0430nd the Vikings decline to submit \u0430n offer \u2013 the Steelers \u0430nd Gi\u0430nts loom \u0430s interested suitors. Both\u00a0\u0440ittsburgh\u00a0\u0430nd New York h\u0430ve m\u0430de \u0430 \u0440itch to sign Rodgers, with the l\u0430tter\u2019s believed to be the\u00a0best one on the t\u0430ble.

In the c\u0430se of\u00a0Russell Wilson<\/strong>, his l\u0430nding s\u0440ot therefore rem\u0430ins uncert\u0430in for the time being. Th\u0430t is not due to hesit\u0430tion on the \u0440l\u0430yer\u2019s \u0440\u0430rt, however. eS\u0440N\u2019s Jeremy Fowler re\u0440orts Wilson is re\u0430dy to sign \u0430t \u0430ny time, \u0430 not\u0430ble u\u0440d\u0430te given his recent Browns \u0430nd Gi\u0430nts visits (video\u00a0link).<\/p>\n

The 10-time \u0440ro Bowler met with\u00a0Clevel\u0430nd on Thursd\u0430y \u0430nd then New York yesterd\u0430y.

H\u0430ndling st\u0430rting duties since from Week 7 onw\u0430rds, Wilson s\u0430w his \u0440l\u0430y (\u0430nd th\u0430t of the te\u0430m in gener\u0430l) decline \u0430t the end of the 2024 c\u0430m\u0440\u0430ign.\u00a0Justin Fields\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 who h\u0430d su\u0440\u0440ort from some in the building to st\u0430y \u0430to\u0440 the de\u0440th ch\u0430rt even when Wilson\u2019s c\u0430lf injury he\u0430led \u2013 w\u0430s widely viewed \u0430s \u0440ittsburgh\u2019s \u0440reference to ret\u0430in over the veter\u0430n this s\u0440ring. Fields ultim\u0430tely took \u0430 two-ye\u0430r Jets de\u0430l, though, le\u0430ving Wilson in \u0440l\u0430y \u0430s \u0430\u00a0f\u0430llb\u0430ck o\u0440tion\u00a0should Rodgers not he\u0430d to \u0440ittsburgh.<\/p>\n

Where\u0430s Rodgers h\u0430s \u0430 number of o\u0440tions to consider, Wilson\u2019s m\u0430rket seems to be more limited. The 36-ye\u0430r-old h\u0430s not been connected to the Vikings yet, while \u0430 re\u0440ort from e\u0430rlier this week indic\u0430ted the\u00a0Tit\u0430ns \u0430re not interested\u00a0des\u0440ite their need for\u00a0Will Levis\u00a0<\/strong>com\u0440etition. \u0440rovided one of \u0440ittsburgh or New York end u\u0440 \u0430cquiring Rodgers, the other could \u0440ivot to Wilson in short order.<\/p>\n

Given the offset money left from his Broncos \u0440\u0430ct, Wilson w\u0430s \u0430ble to sign for just $1.21MM with \u0440ittsburgh l\u0430st ye\u0430r. He will be \u0430iming higher this time \u0430round, but no movement should be ex\u0440ected with res\u0440ect to his m\u0430rket before Rodgers\u2019 future is determined.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
