NFL free agency: LB options for the Giants this offseason

The New York Giants spent big at the linebacker position last offseason, and it was a move that they desperately needed to make after dismal linebacker play through the 2022 season. New York signed former Indianapolis Colts’ linebacker Bobby Okereke to a four-year, $40-million deal with $ 21.8 million guaranteed.

Not only did Okereke stabilize the position group, but he proved to be one of the more vocal leaders on the team. He also assisted in the growth of young second-year linebacker Micah McFadden, who developed substantially last season.

New York now presumably has two starting linebackers, but could still use defensive depth and special teams assets.
