Several New York Giants veterans could be moving on this offseason, as a new front office aims to revamp the roster and begin an overdue rebuild
This has the potential to be a transformational offseason for the New York Giants.
A new regime is in place, led by new general manager Joe Schoen, head coach Brian Daboll, and a revamped front office that seems to have a forward-thinking perspective to roster building.
However, the Giants begin this offseason approximately $12 million over the cap, and Schoen has already vowed to trim $40 million in cap space over the course of this offseason.
Schoen and Daboll’s arrival ushers in a new era of New York Giants football and has the potential to finally begin a long overdue rebuild and overhaul of the roster.
It would seem unlikely that the New York Giants are going to be big players in free agency, and it might even prove difficult to retain some of the team’s own free agents, if this offseason is about clearing dead-money, creating cap space, and opening up spending flexibility in 2023 and beyond.
Likewise, some New York Giants players might be better off playing elsewhere in 2022.
