Markus Golden signed a one-year prove-it deal with the Giants. It seems he has. Maybe too much.
The linebacker leads the team with 9.0 sacks, the most by a Giant since Robert Ayers had 9.5 in 2015, and had been one of the most consistent defenders on the team. By doing so, he may be pricing himself out of any Giants plans to re-sign him.
Golden told Newsday on Wednesday that there have not been any discussions about him returning to the Giants, but he did say he would “love” to.
“It’s been great being here competing,” he said.
