The New York Giants are not giving up on their quest to sign future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The general consensus is that they are willing to wait as long as it takes for Rodgers to make his decision on where he wants to play this season.
The race for Rodgers is down to two teams (the Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers) now that the Minnesota Vikings have let their intentions known they are not interested. Or at least not interested for now.
The Giants agreed to terms with veteran Jameis Winston last week to a two-year, $8 million deal as a safeguard if Rodgers chooses to go to Pittsburgh or retire. Winston can step right in and start with Tommy DeVito as the backup.
Of course, the Giants would then bring in a quarterback in the draft, and that choice will depend on who is available to them at No. 3 in the first round. Experts are split on how this will go down.
Some believe the Giants could trade up for Miami's Cam Ward or wait to see who falls to them at No. 3. Others believe they'll take either Ward or Colorado's Shedeur Sanders with their first pick.
If they miss out, some have suggested that the Giants could trade back into the first round to select a player such as Alabama's Jalen Milroe or Jaxson Dart of Ole Miss.
