Former Duke football standout Ross Cockrell could not come to terms on an agreement with the New York Giants as the cornerback remains a free agent.
A potential return to the Big Apple for Ross Cockrell was reported by various New York Giant beat reporters but the potential deal fell through as the cornerback and the team could not agree on the financial aspects of the contract.
Cockrell, a First-team All-ACC selection in 2012 and 2013, was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the 4th Round of the 2014 NFL Draft and only spent one season with the team.
