Good News:he is back……
The New York Giants are getting a head start to free agency and will host cornerback Darious Williams on Sunday. Williams was recently released from Jacksonville in what is being described as a cost-cutting move.
Williams signed a three-year $30 million contract with Jacksonville before the 2022 season. That was after he won Super Bowl LVI with the Los Angeles Rams. With no guaranteed money remaining going into the final year of his deal, he was released without penalty.
This is where New York can land a good player to help a thin cornerback group.
The Giants top corner, Adoree Jackson, will become a free agent early next week and his return to New York is in question. The team does have two young corners entering their second season. First-round pick Deonte Banks and sixth-round pick Tre Hawkins showed flashes of good play in their rookie year.
They also have third-year guys Nick McCloud and Cor’Dale Flott on the roster. A veteran like Williams would be a nice addition to a young room.
The 30-year-old is heading into his seventh season after signing with the Ravens after going undrafted in 2018. After a short stint in his lone season in Baltimore, he signed with the Rams.
It turned out to be a great move as he paired up with All Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey to form one of the best cornerback duos in the league.
