The New York Giants cornerback room was thin throughout the 2022 season. Big Blue had to release starting cornerback James Bradberry before the season, and he was subsequently scooped up by the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. Bradberry’s departure left a void in one of the two starting positions at outside cornerback.
Giants’ defensive coordinator Wink Martindale suffered through a slew of injuries at the position. Third-round pick Cor’dale Flott struggled with a calf injury at the beginning of the season, and second-year projected starter Aaron Robinson played two games, separated by two injuries: an appendectomy and then a season-ending knee injury.
