Well, that’s probably a dramatic way to describe the state of things. But according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, former Steelers quarterback and possible Giants prospect Russell Wilson is “ready to sign” with either of those two teams, but must wait for Rodgers to make up his mind.
It appears Wilson’s future hangs in the balance of Rodgers’s decision, who is also said to be considering retirement instead of signing with another club, per The Athletic. It’s definitely not an ideal spot for Russ, but he’s certainly been in the business long enough to know that, sometimes, that’s just how these deals go down.
