The New York Giants are signing quarterback Jameis Winston to a two-year, $8 million contract, according to multiple media reports Friday.

Winston is a 10-year veteran with 87 career starts under his belt. He spent the first five seasons of his NFL career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In 2019, Winston simultaneously led the league in passing attempts (626), passing yards (5,109) and interceptions (30); he finished second in passing touchdowns (33).

After a four-year stint with the New Orleans Saints, Winston played for the Cleveland Browns in 2024. He started seven games, guiding them to a 2-5 record. He threw for 2,121 yards, 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.

Winston, 31, becomes the second signal-caller on the Giants’ roster, joining 26-year-old Tommy DeVito. The franchise is still connected to four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers. In addition, they hold the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Winston gives them stability under center. He can be injury insurance behind the 41-year-old Rodgers or a potential bridge option to allow a young quarterback time to develop.
