Winston, whose deal was set to expire after the 2026 season, inked a two-year, $13 million extension with the Giants... He'll remain under contract through the end of 2028... It gives the Giants some certainty behind Dart in case the worst-case scenario happens with an injury, too.

Winston extended through 2028 as Dart's backup; provides injury insurance and salary cap relief.

Winston signed a two-year, $13 million extension with the Giants through 2028, securing his role as backup quarterback behind Tommy Dart. The deal helped the Giants manage salary cap constraints (they were $1.18 million over before the extension) and provides injury insurance; Winston appeared in three games last season (two starts in November when Dart was injured, two snaps on Dec. 14), completing 37-of-66 passes for 567 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. He is now in a mentorship role for Dart, logging critical reps with the No. 2 offense in training camp.
