The couple continued their celebration by having a date night at the New York Knicks game, sitting courtside at Madison Square Garden. Wilson will join a QB room alongside Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito. The Giants have the third overall draft selection, and while a QB was expected to be their target, it remains to be seen if that is still the direction the team will take.
