5 cheap CBs the NY Giants can sign after missing out on Tre'Davious White
4. Tre Herndon
After playing the first six seasons of his NFL career with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Herndon is likely heading elsewhere. He had 46 total tackles, nine passes defended, and a forced fumble in 2023, serving as a rotational piece.
Herndon has been relegated to a reserve role in the past few seasons, playing less than half of the Jaguars' defensive snaps for three consecutive campaigns. He would likely see a bigger role with the Giants with a strong training camp if he fits into new DC Shane Bowen's scheme.
When he is on the field, Herndon is a respectable player. He earned an impressive 71.4 coverage grade from Pro Football Focus last season and was excellent in zone coverages. This could be an under-the-radar move by Joe Schoen to bolster the secondary next year. While Herndon has not ruled out a return to Jacksonville, New York would be a great alternate landing spot for the 28-year-old DB.
