Giants have obvious Deonte Banks solution after failed contract talks

For what feels like the better part of a century, the New York Giants have been searching high and low and near and far for a cornerback room that doesn't make fans want to throw remotes through their televisions. And somehow, someway, against all odds, they might've finally found one.

Greg Newsome II and Deonte Banks have been two of the more pleasant surprises of the 2026 season (shout-out to DJ Reader for being the most pleasant), helping turn what looked like a huge weakness coming into the season into a legitimate strength.

But apparently, keeping the band together isn't going to be quite as easy as general manager Joe Schoen might've hoped.
