New York Giants: Is Jabrill Peppers A Long-Term Building Block?

The New York Giants announced on Saturday that they are placing safety Jabrill Peppers on injured reserve. 2019 was Peppers’s first year as a member of the New York Giants. Jabrill was acquired in the infamous Odell Beckham Jr. trade with Cleveland.

The Giants considered acquiring Jabrill Peppers to be necessary to complete the trade to send Odell to the Browns. In his shortened 2019 season, Peppers flashed the traits that made him a “must-have” to Dave Gettleman and the Giants, but the consistency was not entirely apparent.

With his inconsistent season coming to an early end in Week 14, it is a bit difficult to look at Jabrill’s future with certainty.
