1. Adoree' Jackson

Is there any way we see Adoree' Jackson back in blue for the upcoming season? It doesn't seem like it, but there could still be a chance Jackson is brought back in some way for the Giants. Fans have wanted the Giants to sign a veteran corner all offseason. Even with the acquisitions of David Long Jr. and Tre Herndon, fans still want the position addressed. With big names like Stephon Gilmore and Xavien Howard still on the board, the Giants could still bring a big upgrade in to bring some leadership and a proven player to a young unproven group.

Jackson was once trusted on the team, but after some injuries and a pretty down year in play, the team decided to move on from the 28-year-old corner. The Giants have since re-signed Darnay Holmes for special teams' purposes, along with veteran corners Long, Herndon, and Jalen Mills. They also drafted Andru Phillips, a slot corner from Kentucky, and brought in undrafted free agent corner Alex Johnson out of UCLA who they like. Free agents Elijah Riley and Kaleb Hayes were also added to the mix.

Jackson has a chance to return to this team because of his connections with Shane Bowen. Jackson was in Tennessee at the same time new Giants defensive coordinator Bowen was there. Jackson might need a little refresher course, but one thing he has going for him is his knowledge of the system Bowen is currently installing.
