Russell Wilson will start at quarterback for the New York Giants in preseason action Saturday against the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park, N.Y.

That's according to NorthJersey.com, which reported the news on Saturday morning.

The Giants don't have a quarterback competition. Head coach Brian Daboll said on July 23 that the veteran Wilson, 36, is the starter for his team.

Mitch Trubisky will start for the Bills, while reigning NFL Most Valuable Player Josh Allen will not play.

The game against Buffalo will gave Daboll and his staff their first chance to see Wilson since they signed him in March to a one-year, $10.5 million deal, plus incentives.

It remains unclear how many starters might join Wilson on the field against the Bills.

Rookie Jaxson Dart, selected with the No. 25 overall pick in the April NFL draft, is expected to see significant playing time, per the report. The Giants also have veteran backup Jameis Winston and one-time starter Tommy DeVito on the roster.

A calf injury limited Wilson to 11 games (all starts) with the Pittsburgh Steelers last season, when he completed 214 of his 336 pass attempts (63.7 percent) for 2,482 yards, 16 touchdowns and five interceptions.

In his career, Wilson has started 199 regular season games for the Seattle Seahawks (2012-21), Denver Broncos (2022-23) and Steelers. He has a 121-77-1 record while completing 64.7 percent of his passes for 46,135 yards with 350 TDs and 111 interceptions.

He led Seattle to a Super Bowl championship in his second season.

The Giants open the regular season on Sept. 7 on the road against the Washington Commanders.
