Back in 2016, the
New York Giants made the
NFL's biggest splash in free agency. They signed a trio of high-priced defensive players to add to the talent they already had on hand, bringing in
Janoris Jenkins,
Damon Harrison and
Olivier Vernon on five-year deals that paid them a combined $193.75 million. It paid off during the 2016 season as the Giants had one of the best defenses in all of football and made a trip to the playoffs, but the team has regressed badly the past two years.
New York already traded Harrison last season, receiving only a fifth-round pick from the
Detroit Lions in exchange for his services. Now, they may be looking to deal Vernon. According to multiple reports, the Giants have made it clear to opposing teams that they are willing to move him, and may simply cut him if they can't find a suitable deal.
