The New York Giants won’t just be letting Eli Manning walk this upcoming offseason, but they will also be leaving his $23.2 million cap-hit behind. The money gained in free agency will give general manager Dave Gettleman a ton of cap space to work with in free agency.
A decent portion of the gained cap will likely go toward interior defensive lineman Leonard Williams, who’s in line to earn a nice contract from the Giants. He could make as much as $14 million per-season, and Gettleman has put himself in a spot where he needs to extend him.
