The New York Giants are reportedly in search of a quarterback as they missed out on Matthew Stafford. Their focus is now on potential options like Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, and others expected to be available in free agency. However, agents suggest that these players may not be inclined to join the Giants due to concerns about protection, play-calling, and the stability of coaching staff. As the team navigates this uncertain terrain, they may need to be flexible and persistent in their search for a fit at quarterback.
"I don't think they will be anybody's first choice," one NFL agent whose firm represents multiple quarterbacks told The Post at last week's NFL Draft Scouting Combine.
After coming up short in their pursuit of trading for Matthew Stafford, the Giants are doing homework on Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Sam Darnold, Justin Fields, Jameis Winston and others who might shake loose once free agency opens next Monday.
But those quarterbacks - if they have other options - might see some of the same red flags that concerned Stafford enough to take less money and remain with the Rams.
"Can they protect me? Who is calling the plays? How long are the head coach and general manager who sign me going to be there?" a second NFL agent guessed when asked what questions his clients would be asking if they were in that spot.
