Stevie Brown's offseason signing with the Texans was one of the moves that left the Giants without any veterans at safety and contributed to the lurch they currently find themselves in. Now, his likely return will add stability and experience to the position.
Brown, released by the Texans late this week, is expected to visit the Giants on Sunday and, pending a physical, re-sign with the team.
Brown spent three seasons with the Giants and had eight interceptions as a starter in 2012, but an ACL injury in 2013 sidelined him the entire season and he played a part-time role last year.
