Predicting the rest of 2025 NFL quarterback carousel with Russell Wilson's Giants decision
Russell Wilson signing with the New York Giants added yet another wrinkle to the 2025 NFL quarterback carousel.
However, some teams still need starters for the 2025 season and some teams might not be done adding to the position.
While we're not entirely sure how the dominoes will fall from here to the start of the season, we can make some educated guesses!
Connecting the dots is half the fun during this time of year when we don't have concrete answers, after all.
We've picked five quarterbacks, two veterans and three 2025 NFL Draft prospects, and guessed where they'll be playing in the fall. Let's dive in, shall we?
Pittsburgh Steelers: QB Aaron Rodgers
The stars are aligning for Rodgers to play out his next season in Pittsburgh, as everything is pointing to the Steelers leaning on the future Pro Football Hall of Famer in 2025. If they strike out on Rodgers, Mason Rudolph is probably the starter unless something else happens with Kirk Cousins.
Speaking of...
Cleveland Browns: QB Kirk Cousins
Cousins rejoining his former Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Kevin Stefanski in Cleveland feels likely at this point. The Browns can get a veteran in the room at quarterback through a trade with the Atlanta Falcons and move on from the Deshaun Watson fiasco.
Tennessee Titans: QB Cam Ward
The Titans taking Ward with the first-overall 2025 NFL Draft pick almost feels like a lock. It'll most likely be Ward's team going forward in Music City.
New York Giants: QB Shedeur Sanders
Sanders could either go to Cleveland or New York, but the Browns adding Cousins in this scenario makes it more likely they'll take the best-available non-quarterback. The Giants could add Sanders, let him sit and develop behind Wilson in 2025 and move to start him in 2026.
New Orleans Saints: QB Jaxson Dart
A surprise! The Saints go ahead and draft Derek Carr's heir apparent in Dart, who has been rising up draft boards and could go early in the first round as the third-best quarterback available.
