The Wilsons looked good rocking blue while at the first day of Giants training camp on Wednesday.
The Giants posted photos of their new quarterback, Russell Wilson, with his wife Ciara and their daughters Sienna, 8, and Amora, 1, and son Win, 5 — and Future Jr, 11, the singer's son from her previous relationship with rapper, Future.
Ciara and her kids sported Wilson's No. 3 Giants jersey in blue, while the Super Bowl champ rocked red.
Another video, which was shared by the Giants, showed Future Jr. and Win running to Wilson on the practice field and hugging him.
Wilson can be heard commemorating Win's fifth birthday, which was also on Wednesday.
During his media availability on Wednesday, Wilson spoke highly of the Giants culture and fanbase, adding that being in New York is also great for Ciara's singing career.
'I've been in New York a bunch in the past, I have a lot of family that have been here and lived here and stuff like that, but we love it here. It's just a great city. New York is amazing, Jersey as well,' said Wilson, who signed a one-year deal with the Giants in March after one season with the Steelers.
'I think what I love is the fans, the sports culture. Obviously for Ciara, the music culture is great too, and I think that's great. But I think just for me, I've always been a fast-paced guy. I don't know if everybody knows me really well. I'm constantly just highly focused. I was always taking 18 credits in college, playing football, baseball. I just like being occupied.

'And at the same time, the number one part of it all is the game that I love. That's the best part about it. I get to do what I love to do and these guys love doing it together and we're spending a lot of time together.
'So, these moments, like this training camp, is the part where you love those bonding [moments] at the hotel, the bonding early in the mornings, the late at night, the extra film, that time that you spend together talking ball. I mean that's the part that you forever remember.'

When asked if Ciara 'pressured you a little bit to come to New York,' Wilson said, 'No, she loves New York. I love New York too, but it was all about ball.'
Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed on Wednesday that Wilson will be his starting quarterback heading into the 2025 campaign.

Wilson and Ciara have been making the rounds in New York, attending events and games for the Liberty and the Knicks during their playoff run.
They also attended the ESPY Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles last week.
Wilson started 11 games last season for the Steelers, throwing 2,482 yards with 16 touchdowns, five interceptions and a 63.7 percent completion rate.
He won the Super Bowl with the Seahawks in 2014, two years before he married Ciara.
