These 5 free agents likely won’t return to the NY Giants next season

The NY Giants have focused on rebuilding through the NFL Draft, but made several marquee free agent signings over the past two years to fortify the young core of the roster with veteran players, particularly with the arrival of first-time head coach Joe Judge last winter.

Some of the signings made by general manager Dave Gettleman, such as kicker Graham Gano, inside linebacker Blake Martinez, and cornerback James Bradberry each have been integral to the Giants’ improvement this season and appear to be cornerstones for 2021 and beyond.
