Giants to bring back CB Ross Cockrell, source confirms
The Giants may have found a veteran cornerback to compete for the starting job with two young candidates no longer in the picture.
Ross Cockrell, who played for the Giants in 2017, is expected to sign with the team once he passes his COVID-19 screening and physical in the coming days, a source confirmed to Newsday. Cockrell visited with the team on Saturday.
Cockrell not only has familiarity with the Giants from his one season in New York, but also with the one starting cornerback the Giants currently are counting on. He spent the last two seasons as James Bradberry's teammate with the Panthers. Bradberry signed with the Giants as a free agent this offseason.
