Jameis Winston Giants, Rodgers Meets with Steelers & 2 WRs Added

from 2 Giant Goofballs: A NY Giants Podcast · host Drew & Rob

The New York Giants continue to reshape their roster this offseason, making several notable moves that could have a big impact heading into the 2025 season. The biggest news is the Giants signing veteran quarterback Jameis Winston to a two-year, $8 million contract. This deal is an absolute steal for a player with Winston’s experience, as it’s even cheaper per year than what the Giants paid Drew Lock last season. At 6’4” and 230 pounds, Winston brings size, arm talent, and starting experience to the quarterback room. The former first-overall pick in the 2015 draft out of Florida State has had an up-and-down career, best known for his 33-touchdown, 30-interception season with the Buccaneers in 2019. Last season in Cleveland, Winston played in 12 games with seven starts, throwing for 2,121 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He even set a new Browns franchise record with a 497-yard passing performance against the Broncos. Turnovers have been his Achilles’ heel, but in his four seasons with the Saints, he showed improvement, throwing 20 touchdowns and just 11 interceptions over 21 games. With Mike Kafka reportedly taking back play-calling duties, there’s optimism that Winston could thrive in the Giants' system.Speaking of Rodgers, the future Hall of Famer spent time at the Steelers’ facility on Friday, meeting with their coaching staff. While there’s no deal in place, and no reported visit with the Giants as of yet, Rodgers did meet with the team during the NFL Combine. His situation remains one of the biggest storylines in the league, and Giants fans will be keeping a close eye on where he lands.  The Giants also made a pair of wide receiver signings, bringing in Zach Pascal and Lil’Jordan Humphrey. Pascal, 30, visited the Giants last week before finalizing a deal. At 6’2” and 215 pounds, he brings a physical presence but has primarily been a special teams player in recent years. Last season with the Cardinals, he played all 17 games but didn’t record a single catch. His best years came with the Colts, where he racked up 1,888 of his 2,057 career receiving yards. Interestingly, Giants wide receivers coach Mike Groh was his position coach during that time, so there’s familiarity with the system. Meanwhile, Lil’Jordan Humphrey brings an intriguing mix of size and experience. The 6’4”, 225-pound receiver played all 17 games for the Broncos last season, making seven starts and catching 31 passes for 293 yards and a touchdown. Over his six-year career with the Saints, Patriots, and Broncos, Humphrey has 62 receptions for 770 yards and seven touchdowns. His biggest issue has been drops, with a career catch percentage of 67.4%. Given the drop issues the Giants dealt with last season—particularly with Malik Nabers, Wan’Dale Robinson, and Darius Slayton—this signing is a bit surprising. Unlike Pascal, Humphrey hasn’t played much special teams recently, meaning he’ll need to carve out a role as a receiver to make the final roster. His size and ability to play both outside and in the slot could give him a chance to compete for a role similar to what Isaiah Hodgins provided in past seasons.  #giants #nygiants #nflSend us Fan MailSupport the show
