Giants reportedly meeting with veteran DB Jason McCourty, would a signing be beneficial?

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Giants will be hosting veteran free-agent defensive back Jason McCourty. The 33-year-old’s two-year contract with the Patriots (which he signed ahead of the 2019 campaign) expired this offseason — the fact he’s yet to find a new team isn’t surprising given the declining ability that comes with his increasing age.

This wouldn’t be a significant signing — there’s no way the Giants would ink him to the type of deal they provided cornerback Adoree’ Jackson, who signed a three-year contract with Big Blue earlier this offseason.
