Russell Wilson brings star power to Giants camp as wife Ciara, family watch practice in matching jerseys

It was a family affair for Russell Wilson at New York Giants training camp Wednesday. His first day with his new team also involved wife Ciara and their children. 

Ciara, the Grammy-winning singer, songwriter and actress, was spotted at Quest Diagnostics Training Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey, with their daughters Sienna and Amora, son Win and Future Jr., whose father is rapper Future from a previous relationship. 

They were all watching practice wearing blue No. 3 jerseys for the signal-caller, and the Giants’ social media captured a heartwarming moment after practice when they all met up.

Wilson spoke with reporters after practice Wednesday and discussed his new fan base in New York and how it relates to his wife’s line of work. 

GIANTS' RUSSELL WILSON GETS STARTING QUARTERBACK NOD

"I’ve been in New York a bunch in the past. I have a lot of family that have been here and live here and stuff like that, but we love it here," he said, via the New York Post. "It’s just a great city. New York is amazing, Jersey as well.

"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."

Wilson added that he enjoys training camp no matter which team it’s with because of the bonding opportunities and developing team chemistry before the grind of the regular season begins. 

The Giants are hoping that chemistry is particularly strong with Malik Nabers, the team’s first-round draft pick who exploded in his rookie season with over 1,200 receiving yards despite quarterback struggles. 

As his family was watching, Wilson was already throwing dimes to Nabers, which led to cheers from the fans watching in the stands. He’s also been working well with Wan’Dale Robinson, Theo Johnson and others on the Giants’ offense. 

While the Giants traded into the first round and drafted quarterback Jaxson Dart back in April, head coach Brian Daboll has said numerous times it’s Wilson’s offense until further notice. 

New York also added veteran Jameis Winston to a quarterback room that will be featured on HBO’s in-season "Hard Knocks" as it covers the NFC East with the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders during the regular season.

Massachusetts man allegedly busted with huge haul of rare Pokemon cards after daring theft

A Massachusetts man has been arrested for allegedly stealing $113,000 worth of Pokémon cards and collectibles from a shop in a smash-and-grab heist.   

Richard Jovahn Nunes, 24, was taken into custody in Taunton on Monday and charged with six counts of receiving stolen property over $1,200, the New Bedford Police Department said. 

"I appreciate the support of the Taunton Police Department in helping bring this case to a successful resolution," said police Chief Jason Thody. "I also want to thank Detective Nicole Rodriguez for her solid investigative work and persistence in following up on leads that ultimately led to an arrest and the recovery of stolen property."

The investigation into the theft began on July 8 when officers responded to a break-in at 1st Edition Collectible. 

Surveillance footage obtained by WPRI-TV shows someone wearing a hooded sweatshirt and a mask smashing through the glass front door. The suspect climbed through the shattered door and opened a display case before putting collectibles into a backpack and running back out the front door. 

The theft lasted around 30 seconds, the report states. 

On Monday, New Bedford police Detective Nicole Rodriguez got a lead after someone, later identified as Nunes, allegedly attempted to sell a Base Set Unlimited Green Wings Booster Box, valued at $30,000, which matched an item that was stolen during the burglary.

Later that day, Rodriguez was contacted by an unidentified location in Taunton that reported Nunes allegedly had tried selling Pokémon cards in a separate attempt, police said.

"Based on the rarity and value of the booster boxes involved, detectives determined that it was highly unlikely the same person would possess both without being connected to the original theft," a police statement said.

Nunes was arrested soon after. At the time, he had a warrant for a felony, police said. 

A search of an apartment where Nunes had been staying yielded a shoebox containing serialized and graded Pokémon cards matching those stolen from 1st Edition Collectibles, authorities said. 

The cards found in the apartment were identified as: 

In a Facebook post, 1st Edition Collectibles thanked the police and other collectible shops in the area. The store also announced that proceeds from sales of its "Comeback Collection T-shirts" will be donated to charity. 

"Crime Doesn’t Pay and Karma is Real," the post states. 

In Florida, a trading card shop took a big hit on Monday after a masked suspect broke into the business and stole nearly $30,000 worth of Pokémon cards. Within 75 seconds, a suspect stole between $25,000 and $30,000 worth of rare Pokémon cards, according to FOX 35 Orlando.
