Giants Sign Ex-Eagle, Jerome McDougle
ESPN is reporting that the New York Giants have reached a deal with six-year veteran, Jerome McDougle:
The Giants, according to a source, reached a one-year, $1 million agreement with defensive end Jerome McDougle, whom the Eagles released Saturday. Andy Reid entered camp with seven defensive ends who could rush the quarterback, including McDougle, a former first-round pick.
A lot of people thought this would be the move after the Giants lost Osi Umenyiora and failed to bring Michael Strahan back into the fold.
McDougle, is largely considered a first-round bust. He failed to capitalize on a strong collegiate career, tallying zero starts and three total sacks.
The prospect of being cut seemed to a light a fire under McDougle though. This preseason, he played like a man possessed. The former Miami Hurricane recorded 2.5 sacks, and eight tackles while staying healthy, which is a big if with McDougle. Hopefully, a change of scenery is what McDougle needed.
