The New York Giants filled multiple needs this offseason but still entered training camp with questions at the cornerback position. The loss of rookie cornerback Sam Beal to a season-ending shoulder injury in his first practice surely didn’t help.
With limited cap space, Gettleman added a new piece to the secondary on Friday, signing six-year veteran Leonard Johnson.
The Giants reportedly also worked out veteran free agent Alterraun Verner but elected to go with Johnson.
