The New York Giants can finally apply the franchise tag to Landon Collins. The window of time where the team can do it has just opened, and will stretch into next month. Right now, it’s looking more and more like Collins is going to be the player to receive the tag this year, due to the organization and the player not coming to an agreement about a long-term deal.
Of course, that deal would be the preferable outcome, but after not much progress was made in the earlier parts of the offseason, it’s been reported by Josina Anderson that the Giants and Collins are not in contract negotiations right now.
