NY Giants Veteran Revealed Russell Wilson's Unique Move
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Heading into their first season without Daniel Jones under center for Week 1 in some time, the New York Giants have a unique setup at the quarterback position. At the top is the multi-time Pro Bowler Russell Wilson. Behind him is the former first-rounder out of Florida State, Jameis Winston. Then, the Giants have one of their homegrown backups in Tommy DeVito, along with the first-round rookie, Jaxson Dart. There are a lot of recognizable names in the quarterback room this season, but Wilson is expected to lead the charge when the Giants make it to Week 1. Some might suggest that Wilson doesn't have much to prove at this stage of his career. He's accomplished most things that not every quarterback can say they have. However, Winston recently revealed to the media that's not the case. Not the case for Wilson—not the case for him. "I believe that we all have something to prove to ourselves," Winston told reporters. The backup quarterback then shared a unique tidbit about Wilson's slightly superstitious approach to his first season with the New York Giants. Jameis Winston shares that Russell Wilson's locker is the same locker that he had when he won the Super Bowl with the Seahawks at MetLife Stadium. (via @SNYGiants) — SleeperGiants (@SleeperGiants) June 17, 2025 "The first story that Russ shared with me was his locker position," Winston explained. "He's sitting in the same locker that he sat in when he won the Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks. I think that gives some type of context of what it means to him. Every year, especially at the quarterback position, there's only one of us. We have to approach that with a type of integrity, and the type of responsibility that no one else has." Wilson is searching for that spark that he had in Seattle some time ago. During his run with the Seattle Seahawks, Wilson was one of the top signal-callers in the game, playing on one of the most dominant teams in the league. While he only has one Super Bowl victory on his resume, it was an impressive accomplishment at MetLife Stadium back in February 2014, as the Seahawks dominated the Denver Broncos 43-8. Russell Wilson #3 of the Pittsburgh Steelers reacts as he stretches prior to an NFL Football game against the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium on December 21, 2024 in Baltimore, Maryland. Russell Wilson #3 of the Pittsburgh Steelers reacts as he stretches prior to an NFL Football game against the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium on December 21, 2024 in Baltimore, completed 18 of his 25 passes for 206 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He also rushed for 26 yards on three carries. Since Wilson parted ways with the Seahawks in 2021, he's had a hard time finding that same spark again. His run with the Denver Broncos was forgettable. After two seasons, Wilson went to the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he started 11 games, including one playoff outing, his first in four years. The Giants likely view the 36-year-old as a one-year rental, but they are invested in him as a win-now presence. Wilson certainly seems motivated to prove he can still win at a high level. Perhaps, the locker location helps him find that Seattle spark. For more New York Giants and NFL news, head over to Newsweek Sports.

Former Browns player files huge lawsuit against another NFL team
The Kansas City Chiefs are being sued by one of their former workers. Disgruntled ex-employees are nothing new, but this situation goes pretty deep. Ramzee Robinson was the Chiefs' Director of Player Engagement, a position responsible for supporting players' well-being and development both on and off the field. Robinson is a former NFL player himself having played cornerback for the Detroit Lions, Philadelphia Eagles, Cleveland Browns, Washington Redskins, and Denver Broncos. He then finished out his playing career for two seasons in the CFL with the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Advertisement In the 2007 NFL draft, Robinson was named Mr. Irrelevant as he was the final pick by the Lions. Robinson is suing the Chiefs for wrongful termination, filing this week in an 11-page complaint in the United States Court for the Western District of Missouri - Western Division. The core of the lawsuit claims racial discrimination. RELATED: COMPLETE COMPLAINT ROBINSON V CHIEFS According to Robinson's complaint, there are several issues. He was let go this past February, six days after the Super Bowl loss. For one, he is stating that black employees of the Chiefs are paid less than their white counterparts. Secondly, there is a videotape that accuses Robinson of acts against a female office worker, and the Chiefs fired him without allowing him to see the video evidence. Another claim is that another NFL team, the Houston Texans, wanted to interview him for an open position, but the Chiefs halted that process. CB Ramzee Robinson The lawsuit is seeking an unspecified number of damages, but the docket includes a demand for $5 million. In a nutshell, Robinson is suing for racial discrimination, team retaliation, and tortious interference with business expectancy in regards to the interference with the Texans' interview. Advertisement In regard to the claim that black employees are passed over or paid less, the suit gives an example of a black female employee who was paid $50,000 a year and was refused a promotion. After she resigned, a white female, Melissa Weinsz, who is a Ph.D., replaced her at a rate of $80,000 a year. When asked for a comment on the suit by Pro Football Talk, Chiefs V.P. of football communications Brad Gee stated what is pretty much a standard response in these situations: 'We can't comment because it's an active legal matter. But to be clear, the Chiefs do not tolerate discrimination of any kind. We look forward to the facts of this case coming to light.' Robinson entered the league in Round 7, after playing cornerback at Alabama with 50 games played. He graduated with a degree in business management. After his pro career ended, he earned a master's degree in professional counseling from Webster University. He is currently a doctoral candidate at The Chicago School in Applied Behavior Analysis. Cleveland Browns v Philadelphia Eagles After two seasons with Detroit, he signed a one-year deal with the Eagles but was released towards the end of the 2009 season after playing three games. The Browns claimed him off waivers. Robinson played in four contests and was inactive for another while with Cleveland. He had five total tackles, all on special teams. He then spent time with Washington, Denver, and Saskatchewan. Advertisement Robinson's complaint states that he was fired by Kansas City for 'conduct detrimental to the league.' He was employed for nine years with the Chiefs, which began at a salary of $35,000 and grew to $125,000 a year. But in the suit, it alleges that he was underpaid in his profession in comparison to other NFL clubs with the same job title, with salaries around $171,000. When asked for a review, Robinson states the team declined. Robinson's attorney, Katrina Y. Robertson, issued this statement to the press: 'My client dedicated years of professional service to the Chiefs organization and supported players through critical personal and professional challenges. This lawsuit seeks to hold the organization accountable for the systemic inequities and retaliation he faced for simply demanding fairness.' According to the Chiefs, the video is at the heart of this matter. Apparently, the security cameras picked up Robinson attacking Weinsz. This will ultimately become the key piece of evidence in the case. The Chiefs are claiming that Robinson is dangerous and has acted inappropriately around white female co-workers. Advertisement In the lawsuit, Robinson, age 41, is demanding a jury trial. The termination began when Robinson's supervisor, Kirsten Krug, accused him of attacking a 'white female coworker' after seeing the security footage. The woman was Weinsz. After the Super Bowl, Krug went into Robinson's office and accused him of the attack. When asked to review the video, Krug and the Chiefs refused. The Chief of Security was summoned, Robinson's employment was terminated, and Krug confiscated his laptop. Attorney Robertson stated: '(Robinson) unequivocally denies having been in an altercation with anyone.' The lawsuit goes on to say that Robinson's firing was a direct result of his race. When the Texans were asked about Robinson and his accusatory issues, the team declined to comment. Advertisement The relevant language in the complaint appears in paragraph 24: 'Some months before his termination, Mark Donovan pressured Plaintiff to renew his contract and claimed that the contract would offer him stability. After Plaintiff signed, the Houston Texans asked KC Chiefs' management to interview Plaintiff. The KC Chiefs refused. The KC Chiefs told the Texans that an interview would violate his contract. Plaintiff discovered this information when a representative from the Texans called him personally and asked him about this missed opportunity.' Regarding this portion of the complaint, the NFL's Anti-Tampering Policy covers this situation. 2025 NFL Draft - Previews The Chiefs had every right under the policy to refuse to allow Robinson to interview with Houston because they weren't offering him a high-level position, and it is considered to be a lateral move. In fact, the very essence of Robinson mentioning the Texans may work against him. The fact that he states the Texans 'called him personally and asked him about this missed opportunity' just may become a violation of the Anti-Tampering policy. Houston may also be in violation if this rings true. Teams cannot reach out to employees of other teams without permission or if those employees have expired contracts. In the end, the Texans just might become involved in a tampering investigation by the NFL. Advertisement More from

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Hold Hands While Leaving NYC Restaurant After Sweet Date Night
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have thrilled fans thanks to another sweet date night sighting. The couple, both 35, stepped out in New York City on Friday, June 20 and were snapped holding hands while leaving a restaurant following their outing. In footage shared via a fan account, Swift and Kelce were seen exiting what appeared to be a back exit of the venue, while an employee held the door open for them. Kelce shook the employee's hand before departing. Dressing for the summer heat, the 'Bad Blood' singer wore a pale blue tank top matched with a floaty, dusty pink skirt for the occasion, while the Kansas City Chiefs tight end opted for all-white attire, rocking a matching T-shirt and shorts. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Spotted During Their 2nd New York City Date in a Row Similar to many of their previous date nights, Swift and Kelce didn't seem to be afraid of subtle public displays of affection and sweetly held hands while on the move. The spotting is the latest in a spate of outings for the pair, who have been enjoying quality time together following an incredibly busy period in their respective careers. Last week, the athlete and pop star attended the Stanley Cup Finals in Sunrise, Florida on June 12. During the game, fans captured Swift and Kelce sharing a kiss and packing on the PDA as they watched the Edmonton Oilers face off against the Florida Panthers. Swift and Kelce also attended a wedding in Tennessee and were spotted enjoying each other's company on several other date nights at restaurants earlier this month. While they have emerged this month for their recent public date nights, Kelce and Swift had been deliberately lying low after they both experienced a jam-packed year. Swift wrapped up her Eras Tour in December 2024 while Kelce played the Super Bowl in February, losing to the Philadelphia Eagles. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Pack on the PDA at Stanley Cup Game With a Touching Kiss An insider exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month that the duo were staying out of the spotlight intentionally. 'They are making fewer public appearances together because [their relationship] brings too much unwanted attention,' the source told Us on June 4, 'but there isn't trouble in paradise.' In February, the athlete's dad, Ed Kelce, shared his two cents on how he thought his son's relationship with Swift would progress once both their schedules were clear. 'I think, you know, once we get past the Super Bowl, I think it's going to be a very good period of time for the two of them,' he told Australia's Today show. 'Without the NFL season, without the Eras tour. Just them alone really connecting more. I think that can only be a good thing.'
