Landon Collins wants to return to the Giants, the team that moved up in the second round of the 2015 NFL Draft to take him out of Alabama then made him a fixture in their defensive backfield.
Collins’ four-year contract is up and he knows the Giants can keep him off the free agent market by slapping the franchise tag on him. If that is the route the Giants take, it would guarantee Collins about $11 million for the 2019 season, but prevent him from striking a long-term deal with another team.
