Under new general manager Dave Gettleman, the New York Giants are trying to keep taking steps in the right direction by purging their roster of veterans who don’t fit the team’s vision anymore. The team released right tackle Bobby Hart before the end of the season, and cut Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie just before the start of free agency.
Now, it appears that they have made another move. Veteran receiver Brandon Marshall was released by the team just a year after signing on to serve as their No. 2 receiver. Marshall never really clicked with Eli Manning, and had the worst season of his career, catching just 18 passes for 154 yards and no touchdowns.
