NY Giants stay or go: Who is part of rebuild? Who should be dumped?
DB Jabrill Peppers
Peppers has been one of the Giants’ top defensive backs the past two seasons, and has the ability to be a dynamic special teams contributor.
The Giants have yet to have the chance to get rookie Xavier McKinney on the field alongside Peppers, with McKinney sidelined since late August with a fractured foot. However, adding McKinney to the secondary should mask some of Peppers’ inconsistencies in coverage and allow him to be more of a weapon against the run and up near the line of scrimmage.
