New York Giants: DeAndre Baker No Longer Appealing Exempt List
It’s a bad offseason so far for New York Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker. The corner was placed on the Commissioner’s Exempt List when a warrant was made for his arrest, due to accusations of armed robbery. For a while, everyone wondered whether the case would be dismissed. That seemed to be what Baker’s legal team thought would happen.
However, that prediction was off as Baker was charged with four counts of robbery, while Quinton Dunbar escaped without charges. Dunbar is being removed from the exempt list and presumably will play. It’s hard to say the same thing about Baker and his chances of playing this season.
