For much of the last few months, the New York Giants have had to utilize a “next man up” mentality when it comes to the starting cornerback position opposite James Bradberry. There was DeAndre Baker, who found himself in a significant legal battle with multiple armed robbery charges. Then, there was Sam Beal, who opted out, and Ross Cockrell, who looked to be coming to East Rutherford before a potential deal fell through earlier this month.
But now, the search for a new defensive back has concluded with just two weeks until the team’s regular-season opener.
