After a couple of mediocre seasons in the Big Apple, Julian Love has finally broken out and looks like a Pro-Bowl caliber player. While he still has plenty of room to improve, the newest Giants captain must be on the roster next season.

Through 13 games played in 2022, Love has racked up 90 combined tackles, two interceptions, 26 stops, and two pass breakups. Love certainly has room to grow as a coverage safety, but he has certainly made a noticeable jump this fall.

What may be the most impressive stat about Love is that with all 90 of his tackles, he’s only registered three missed tackles all season. Love’s ability as a tackler for his size and frame is truly special.

According to Spotrac.com, Love has a market value of around $8 million a season. If the Giants have the chance to pay him this for the foreseeable future, they should capitalize on it. Love is only going to get better from here.
