Come the start of the regular season, and the New York Giants might be deploying Sam Beal as their number two cornerback. With DeAndre Baker still facing legal issues and the Giants wanting nothing to do with him until those are resolved, they will have to find a supplement. Beal seems like the obvious choice to answer the call, but he doesn’t have much live experience due to a number of injuries.
Beal was selected in the supplemental draft by general manager Dave Gettleman in 2018, who spent a third-round pick for his services. A known injury to his shoulder forced the young defender to undergo surgery before even hitting the training facilities.
