As previously mentioned here, the wishful Leonard Williams 2020 cap savings after reaching a contract extension for the NY Giants is not coming. The critical date in reaching a potential ‘team-friendly’ – depending on what you feel Williams is worth, which is extremely debatable – was always the minute before 2020 free agency officially opened.
That time has come and gone, and according to Ryan Dunleavy of the NY Post, both sides are now content to let this thing ride out well into the Summer. Dunleavy poignantly mentions Williams’ agent, Roosevelt Barnes, who has a history of not minding to let contract negotiations develop over a long period of time.
